Short sale and buy again

Posted on: 22nd Apr, 2013 12:38 am
One of my cousins went through a short sale and wants to know how soon can she buy again? Some say that the waiting period is 2 years after the short sale and others say 1 year. Does anyone know for certain?
Hi Pram,

Normally after a short sale, one needs to wait for 2 years to take out a mortgage in order to buy a home.

Take care

Hi Pram!

Welcome to the forums!

Sara is right in saying so. You will have to wait for 2 years to get a new loan. In the meanwhile, you can take steps to improve your credit score.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Hi Not really.
I am able to buy a house exactly after 1 yr of short sale. There are some banks who can lend you. Wells Fargo is one of them..
