Chapter 13 BKYou can buy a home while in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy or Consumer Credit Counseling in Charlotte using an FHA loan!

FHA loans have been around for a long time, but many people still do not know a lot of the great opportunities FHA offers.  There are many families out there that have chosen the road of bankruptcy because of death of a spouse, failure of a business or severe illnesses.  Sometimes people just get in over their heads with debt and need help.  Chapter 13 Bankruptcy or Consumer Credit Counseling offer people a second chance while still making the effort to pay back what’s owed.

If you are in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy or Consumer Credit Counseling you might still qualify to buy a house… and not in 3 years!  Most loan programs require 2-3 years pass from discharge of a bankruptcy, but under FHA you might qualify TODAY.

Here is a general criteria of what is acceptable:

  • At least 12 months satisfactory payment history in the bankruptcy
  • Permission from Bankruptcy court to buy a home (not that hard)
  • CLEAN credit since start of Bankruptcy
  • New House payment must be reasonable based on current housing expenses
