Post subject: how to get mortgage after foreclosure |
|
|
We had a foreclosure in may 2007.
We have no debt and credit score above 700.
To purchase a house, we offer to pay cash 60% and were looking to finance 40%.
We are told that we cannot qualify for mortgage even with a large down payment as the foreclosure is not three years old, is tis correct??

Post subject: buying home after forclosure |
|
|
we went into foreclosure this week by accident , we were trying to refinance and one payment was one day late and the bank did not want to work with us anymore. My father in law wants to help by offering his credit to get a new home. can we refinance after one year with a low interest rate to put the new home under our credit? and if so, do we have to put a down payment, when we refinance?
Thank you.

Hi aracely,
You need to wait for at least 2 years after foreclosure to qualify for an FHA-insured loan and 3-4 years to get a conventional loan. It will be difficult to get a mortgage in your name just 1 year after a foreclosure. Moreover, a lot will depend on your credit scores. Apart from waiting for a certain length of time after the foreclosure, you also need to improve your credit considerably to qualify for a home loan. |

You will be better off if you put down at least 20%. FHA only requeires 3 % but that doesnt mean that any lender has to do your loan. A lot of lenders these days have their own guidelines when it comes to this type of stuff. You probably will have a hard time finding financing. You could find a home through owner financing that will be willing to hold a note for 2 years or you may have to go hard money.

Post subject: when does the "clock start" |
|
|
| I was foreclosed on last year. I see from above that I will need to wait at lest two years before I can try for another loan, but when does the clock start ticking? From when the Notice of Default was filed or from the date I moved out of the property? |

Hi waiting,
Most lenders would want you to wait for at least 2 years after a foreclosure to apply for a new loan. The 2 years will be counted from the day your property is auctioned off and the ownership gets transferred from you to the new owner. |

To Christina,
Which type of bankruptcy did you file in 2004? If you filed bankruptcy Chapter 7 and got discharged the same year, you can apply for a mortgage now. The foreclosure will stay on your credit report. But since it is more than 2 years old, you can definitely go for a home mortgage.
FHA requires you to wait for at least 2 years after a foreclosure or bankruptcy to qualify for a new mortgage. However, you have to wait for around 3-4 years to after the bankruptcy discharge or the foreclosure to get approved for a conventional mortgage. A lot also depends on how much you have improved your credit scores since the foreclosure and the bankruptcy. What are your current credit scores? Do you have any other negative items on your credit report like charge-off, etc.? |
