sidd_jfk Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 There are plenty of subprime lenders as to speak.Your best option is to go through a mortgage brokerYou may contact Charles at 801.942.2918 with your situation.www.bestmortgageinfo.comWhat is current FICO score? You probably want to be in 610-620 range good options. Higher the score the better and remember income will play an important role too. I am ont sure how BK will play all into this.

paw67 Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 You would definately need to talk to a broker, especially with a bk so young. You could email or PM Charles and he will be able to give you more info. In terms of FICO scores, you will want your mid score to be 620 or higher. Also, do you have money for a downpayment? The more you have for a downpayment, the better off you will be. Good luck.paw67 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amortgageman Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 The best subprime lender will loan to 100% financing at 600 credit scores, 1 day after bankruptcy discharge. Right now the par interest rate is 6 5/8% for a thirty year FIXED RATE on the first mortgage, and the second mortgage is around 11 or 12% on the second mortgage. All that is needed is three tradelines in the credit history that were paid off satisfactorily, or paying satifactorily, one being open for 24 months, and the other two at least 6 months. This does not mean current accounts, as long as they are contained in the credit history on one of the three credit reports. There are several other alternative sources for less than 1 year discharge, but almost all will require 5% down payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
