Hi ottdee!

Welcome to the forums!

Immediately after completing Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing, you will not be able to get a mortgage. You will have to wait for 2-3 years in order to get any kind of loan.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Hi ottdee,

I agree with Sussane. You will have to wait for at least a year in order to qualify for a FHA loan after Chapter 13 discharge. In case of conventional loans, you need to wait for 2 or more years.

Thanks
