You need to work at reestablishing credit and keep it clean during that time.
Good Luck

Hi riricosta,
Like Brian said, you need 2 years after BK for FHA, so your only option is to look for a lease purchase, enter into a 2 year agreement, rebuild your credit, make all rent/lease pymts on time, and you will be an excellent candidate after 6/10. You normally need at least $2500 to put down on these types of transactions, but in today's market, anything is possible.
