Waiting period rules after short sale, bankruptcy, or foreclosure

Mortgage and Lending with Cambria Mortgage NMLS 274132

Minneapolis, MN: As a mortgage Loan Officer, it seems I am asked what the rules are for getting a new mortgage loan after having a bankrutcy, foreclosure, or short sale about 100 times a week.

Therefore I have made, and update as needed, a comprehensive list of each of their guidelines for quick and easy reference.  Bookmark, make as a favorite for yourself, or feel free to link to your personal web site to help your clients know the rules.

Almost all mortgage loans in this country are underwritten based on Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA and USDA guidelines, so these rules encompass just about everyone.

Thanks a lot for sharing. If you have just filed bankruptcy, you will not be barred from ever obtaining a mortgage loan, however, you will not be able to get one immediately. When you can get a mortgage after bankruptcy will depend upon the type of loan you want, the type of bankruptcy you filed, and how good your credit is at the time you want the loan.
