If it is determined that you do not have an equity position in your home that exceeds the state statutory exemptions, you will be able to keep your home in a Chapter 7, as long as you continue to be current on your monthly mortgage payments

You can file bankruptcy on a home and all unsecured debt. You can include your home if you wish or re-affirm your home and your vehicles. Be sure to go to a Bankruptcy Lawyer and find out first hand. Many offer free consults and will give you a much more reliable answer than myself or any other idiot on here.
