Es un documento que el banco o la financiera env\u00eda durante el proceso, a veces con una nota que sugiere que si no lo firman perder\u00e1n su casa o su carro.

El deudor sigue siendo personalmente responsable por el saldo completo, con los mismos t\u00e9rminos que ten\u00eda antes o con los t\u00e9rminos renegociados en el acuerdo. Si m\u00e1s adelante no puede pagar y el bien es recuperado o ejecutado, el acreedor puede demandar la diferencia restante.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; text-align: justify; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Poppins,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">El reaffirmation agreement debe ser aprobado por el tribunal de bancarrota. Si el deudor tiene abogado y el abogado no firma el acuerdo \u2014 es decir, no certifica que el acuerdo no representa una dificultad excesiva para el cliente \u2014 el juez debe celebrar una audiencia para evaluar si aprueba el acuerdo de todos modos.

Si tu casa vale $350,000 y debes $200,000, la reafirmaci\u00f3n puede tener sentido porque protege ese patrimonio y mantiene tu historial de pagos activo con ese acreedor. Cuando la tasa de inter\u00e9s del pr\u00e9stamo es significativamente m\u00e1s baja que lo que podr\u00edas obtener hoy en el mercado. Cuando el acreedor ofrece modificar los t\u00e9rminos del pr\u00e9stamo dentro del acuerdo de reafirmaci\u00f3n \u2014 reduciendo la tasa, el plazo o el saldo\u00a0 lo que convierte el acuerdo en una oportunidad real de mejora.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cu\u00e1ndo generalmente no conviene firmar:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuando el valor del bien es igual o inferior al saldo de la deuda\u00a0 el acuerdo introduce una obligaci\u00f3n personal sin que exista patrimonio real que proteger. Cuando la situaci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica que llev\u00f3 a la bancarrota no ha cambiado fundamentalmente y la probabilidad de volver a entrar en mora es real.
