I Filed Bankruptcy Over 7 Years Ago, Will Any Lender Extend A Mortgage?
I let my house go and filed bankruptcy when I got ill and my ex flew off on her broom b/c she didn't want to "deal" with it.
I have been since been renting and establishing my former good credit back and my FICO score is nearly 700 now..
I am wanting to find of all things a foreclosed home and try to "start over".
Is there lenders out there that will even look at me for a mortgage now?

There should be no problem getting a mortgage. The bank I work for excuses BK's after 2-4 years depending on the established credit the applicant has after the BK was filed.
If you have a down payment, that would help out as well.
Good luck

Absolutley, I have lenders that will extend credit to borrowers who have been out of Ch. 7 BK for only one day. With your credit being almost 700 and your BK being 7 years old you could get a conventional Fannie Mae Loan with great rates and probably no money down.


SCH
Your credit rating has really bounced back, so you should be OK. You only have 3 years before you actually have the forclosure fall off though and that will really help your interest rate. It just depends on what you want to settle for. You could go with an ARM (adjustable rate mortgage) and probably by the time the forclosure falls off it will be time to refinance to avoid the balloon.

Good Luck!

You shouldn't have any problems as long as your bills are all current and you have a steady work history.


marxistharpist
Yes lender's like to see that you have reestablished your credit after a BK, after 7 years it's something no one looks at. This time be educated and make sure you shop around, don't just jump on a loan because you got approved. Find a broker you can trust and shop around.


MamaBear
You shouldn't have any trouble, but you will probably be subject to higher interest rates because of your score being below 700. Some of it will depend on what kind of bankruptcy (Chapter 7 vs. Chapter 13), how long it has been since the bankruptcy was discharged, etc. Good luck.

Please don't go to losers in here spamming for business.

7 years is alot of seasoning on a bankruptcy, and you are obviously back on track financially with that good credit score. Good job!

Yes, mortgage lenders will look at you and you should have no troubles getting approved.


Paul V
Absolutely, as long as you have a good credit history since and have repaid obligations on time. Go for it!! Now's the best time to buy a house, it's a buyer's market!!
