So may not get finance to buy a new home with FHA Secured. But there are loan programs with FHA. So why don't you go for FHA loans. BTW I think you can seek No-obligation free consultation from the community professionals to what kind of loan will be best of you. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions. Best of luck. Larry

These are not credit score driven loans but you need to make at least for the last 12 months. If you have filed bk chapter7 then there should be no late payments in the last 24 months. Know more about FHA loans at http://www.mortgagefit.com/fhaloan/credit-score.html#46934 Feel free to ask if you have any further questions Best of luck. Larry

It is a case by case basis and each investor has slightly different guidelines on it. The 4155 is the FHA handbook, and it is a great resource, but it is written with a lot of room for interpretation by the lenders/underwriters. An example is this case..it says you can have a 2nd FHA loan if you are moving due to job relocation and the new job is an unreasonable driving distance from your current home. Guess who gets to define unreasonable? Yep, the investor/underwriter. _________________ For more information and to see if you might qualify for FHA, visit our website www.FHAinfoCenter.com or visit our blog at http://fha-mortgage-info-center.blogspot.com/.

Thee are rare situations where 2 are allowed. Good Luck Brian _________________ Licensed Broker 50 states http://www.aimwithfocus.com Need quick advise email or PM Glad to help

In most cases you cannot have 2 FHA loans at one time but there are exceptions. _________________ Eugene Volovik Branch Manager Team USA Mortgage 612-481-3127 Conventional, FHA and Commercial Lending
