Chapter 7 discharged in March 2010 need a lender in FL asap

Posted on: 19th Aug, 2010 08:18 pm
I am in a weird situation. My mortgage lender has not foreclosed on my home yet, but they will in 30 days or so. I have that time period to locate a lender who will approve me for a new loan.

My home was purchased in Feb 2006 for $330k. It appraised for $460k during the boom and now, the mortgage company is willing to take $150k!!! Every lender I called required 2 years after the Chapter 7 for an approval.

Are there any lenders who will approve a this type of loan in FL?

credit score over 580 and on the rise.
Income good, etc..

I need $150k for the loan and I owe $15k in back taxes. I have $3k down, but can come up with another $3k if need be.

Please help me!
Hi NuGateway,

As a bankruptcy is mentioned in your credit report, you won't be able to qualify for a loan immediately. As you filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you'll have to wait for 2 years after the discharge to qualify for a FHA loan and 4 years after the discharge to qualify for a conventional loan.

My sister had to wait two years after her bankruptcy as well.

Yes you will have to wait atleast 2 years before you can try to get another loan
