House Sale Before Bankruptcy

HI,
I'm contemplating BR but have a question.
I wish to sell the house ASAP as I can't keep up the repayments for much longer and for other personal reasons want to get shot of it.
I'm considering selling at auction if no buyers after a length of time.
If I end up selling it at what might not be the estimated market value, then a few months later go BR, would the OR be able to dissolve the sale? Would it just be simpler to go BR and have the house repossessed?
Anyone any advice?
