Can I get a mortgage after a foreclosure

Posted on: 01st Aug, 2010 07:29 am
I have a 100000 career as a Registered Nurse and have a foreclosure on my record from 2 1/2 years ago. My credit score is about 640. My boyfriend is self employed but has the option of getting a VA loan. He is in construction and has had to claim a loss on his taxes the last two years just to make it through. He has a credit score over 780. Is there anyone that will give us a mortgage loan under these circumstances???? Please help. My foreclosure was due to a divorce.
Thanks
Linda
Hi Linda,

If you applying for new loan after foreclosure lender wilt put highest interest on mortgage. You can apply for mortgage after 1 year from date of foreclosure & as you say Regarding you circumstances you apply for FHA (Federal Housing Administration) Loan.

Requirements for FHA:
You have minimum 620 Credit score in order to apply for FHA.
Most recent bank statements.
Income proof like a payment sleep IT records.
Other required documents by creditor.

Thanks & Regards.

you have several options (see below). in my opinion, your best options may be to apply for an fha or a va home loan. we have offer both loan porgrams. to determine the best option, contact me direct and we can discuss in greater detail.

• fha guidelines are two years after a foreclosure, which means you could qualify for as little as 3.5% down.
• hard-money lenders will often make loans six months after filing bankruptcy or a foreclosure, but will a require 20 to 35% down payment. the interest rate will be very high and the loan terms are not as favorable; many will contain prepayment penalties and be adjustable.
• subprime lenders (not to be confused with hard-money lenders) are no longer making 100% financed loans.

You can very well apply for the credit after bankruptcy is removed. Just get more guidance over this issue from Bankruptcy Lawyer, they may provide you better knowledge.
