Finding a mortgage lender after bankruptcy?

Written By: admin on November 16, 2009 No Comment

Hi Everyone, my husband and I went through a ch 7 bankruptcy that has been discharged for a year now. We’d like to buy a home in the next 6-9 months and I am currently trying to educate myself on how to do it. We’ve been working hard to raise our score and have been succesful at it.

So, my questions are: 1) Are there any mortage lenders that won’t just run away screaming when they hear we have a bankruptcy? Better yet, a lender that we won’t pay out the nose with in re interest rates?

2) What are the additional costs of buying a house? What exactly are closing costs; What other costs are there?

Any input would be fantastic!

Thanks!
