If you don't own your home, I fail to see how it could never throw you out of your home.

Actually - I'm quite uncertain how bankruptcy laws interact with renting in the US so maybe that is a possibility.

  • In a BK, some states may force you to liquidate a house if there’s equity in the home. Other states will let you keep a primary home.

    • Florida allows you to keep your primary residence, regardless of value, even if there were criminal acts involved. Texas is less forgiving and does not indemnify your personal residence against criminal acts, but in exchange allows you to keep two horses.
