We offer a free initial consultation to look at the challenges you face and give you honest answers about your rights and options.

WHAT IS A CRAM DOWN?

A cram down can actually refer to two different things in bankruptcy. In a Chapter 11 filing, it refers to a bankruptcy court “cramming down” a reorganization plan over the objection of creditors. The term has also come to refer to a court-ordered modification of mortgages on rental or commercial property in Chapter 11, Chapter 12 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing.

Cramdowns can be used with all types of commercial property, including:

  • Multiple-unit apartments

  • Duplexes

  • Retail stores

  • Office buildings

  • Warehouses

  • Manufacturing buildings

Cramdowns can be used to change the terms of any loan that is secured only by the principal resident. It can even be used in the case of a duplex or multiple-unit apartment when you live in one of the units.

If you have multiple mortgages on your property, bankruptcy may also allow you to strip the liens from junior mortgages.
