How will filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy affect my ability to rent an apartment or buy a car?
Cfteach
Badly. It is obviously a bad, bad thing on a credit report...and if someone looks it will likely effect their decision. Some landlords may not care, some may. Virtually all formal lenders, like for cars, will consider it exclusionary. If your till in C-13, you can't do either without approval of your trustee, or your case will be dropped and criminal charges possibly made. (You swore to the court in your filing you wouldn't. Courts don't like to be lied to).

Your debt is completely your own, and will not affect your fiance's credit rating. It would play a part in purchasing a house in your name only. As far as renting, landlords will usually consider you a "good risk". After BK discharge the person is for the most part (or should be) debt free.

Should wife be placed on deed before filing chapter 13 bankruptcy?
You will need to discuss this thoroughly with an experienced bankruptcy lawyer. Mortgages usually do not allow a change in title without the consent of the mortgage holder, and it can trigger acceleration of the mortgage and require immediate poayment of the whole balance due. If the wife has good credit and the mortgage is in trouble, it may affect her ability to borrow after the bankruptcy, so don't do it.
