Sequestration may be suitable for you if you cannot maintain your minimum contractual payments to your debts and may be an option where you cannot afford the minimum payment required for a Protected Trust Deed.
In a Sequestration process, you have to hand over your estate (the things you own), including your home, to your Trustee. Your Trustee is the person who then administers your bankruptcy.
It is the responsibility of your appointed Trustee to sell your assets, such as money, savings, property, vehicles, life policies, jewellery and shares, in order to:
You are able to keep some things that are essential for day-to-day living, such as clothes and furniture. You may also be required to make some payment from your ongoing income. Sequestration will affect your credit rating and will be recorded on your credit reference file for six years.
