Bank doesn't re-affirm...the debtor does. If bank does not foreclose, the debt still exists, and grows. They just may some other time.

If I don't reaffirm a car loan can the lender take the car back at any time even if I have paid equity into the car after a period of time?

If you don't reaffirm the debt, then the creditor has the right to repossess the car and sell it at auction to recover the debt owed to them, irregardless of what equity that you've paid. If you wished to keep the car, then you should have demanded that your attorney reaffirm the debt with that particular creditor.

If you file chapter 7 can you keep your secured debt?

You may be able to keep some or even all of your secured debt. Simply reaffirm at the time you file, or it can be done as an addendum later. Your attorney will be familiar with the process.

If you own several properties and the lender forecloses on one of them can the bank take any of the other properties?

State laws vary so the following is general information. You need to check the laws in your particular jurisdiction. If you own three properties, A, B and C, each covered by a separate mortgage, and the bank forecloses the mortgage on property A. It cannot touch properties B and C in that foreclosure proceeding. However, if you still owe the bank money after that foreclosure and the bank sues you for that debt in civil court and wins, it may be able to obtain a judgment lien that can be recorded in the land records that would affect your other properties. Some states have passed laws that prevent deficiency judgments.
