Recent Bankruptcy or Foreclosure:

There must be 12 consecutive months of on time payments on all accounts

(including utilities, cell phones,etc) from the filing of the chapter 13 bankruptcy.




Chapter 7 BANKRUPTCY:

There must be 24 months of perfect credit from the disposition of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

FORECLOSURE:

EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES

FINANCING 1 YEAR OUT OF FORECLOSURE

The FHA Underwriters have the ability to manually underwrite the file and get an

"exception" if there are extenuating circumstances (ie Medical, Death, multiple job loss).

Buyers would need to write out a very detailed explanation of exactly what happened,

and will need to submit supporting docs (legal, medical, etc). Each File will be reviewed

by UnderWriting to determine if the circumstances warrant "Extenuating".

If so, they will grant Pre-Approval.
