What does it mean to reaffirm a mortgage and how does it impact the borrower's financial obligations?

Reaffirming a mortgage means agreeing to continue making payments on the loan after a bankruptcy. By reaffirming, the borrower remains responsible for the debt, keeping the house but also the financial obligation to repay the loan. This can impact the borrower's financial obligations by ensuring they must continue making payments on the mortgage, even if they have filed for bankruptcy.
