Ok, I had my first meeting of creditors yesterday and on or around 6-1-10 my bkruptcy will be discharged. Before I get someone in here to start hating, it happen because my wife lost her job and my 4 yr old son has been sick, 1 surgery a lots of out of pocket medical and prescription expenses that I just could not afford or keep my budget intact.

Now for the background. I bought a home in December 2006 with a Veterans loan. Due to the job lose and medical bills I was forclosed on about 6 months ago and had my bkuptcy hearing yesterday.

How long will it be until I can apply for a second mortgage and actually be considered. I know I will have to pay down between 10% (HUD if they will finance me) and 20% for a conventional. But if I work on getting my credit straight, what is the length of time I need to wait to be approved. I would prefer a hud loan since the down payment is much less and they are a bit more forgiving about bkruptcys and foreclosures than a traditional lender. Any help on this matter is appreciated.
Ok, I’m not looking for a scam loan. I want legit advise about waiting periods and the ability to get a HUD loan after foreclosure on another government backed loan (VA loans). So please stop e-mailing me about “legit” opportunities because I think you’re full of crap.
KL, thank you for your post. Is it possible to get another FHA loan since my foreclosure was on a VA loan?

I co-signed on my mom’s mortgage to help her get a loan. I was naive going into this — completely new to the process, and believed it when I was told by the broker that I could be taken off the loan at any time (I’m filing a complaint with the Attorney General for that).

Well… mom couldn’t afford to pay back the loan, the foreclosure process has begun, and now she’s talking about filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

By her filing for chapter 7, I would be the only person left standing to pay for a house that I don’t even live in.

I’ve already spoken with two attorneys — one said they’d try to get my name off the loan and I never heard back. The other said I should sue her to force a short sale, and said the bank probably won’t go after me for the difference.

I’m really getting the shaft on a deal that was supposed to help my credit. What can I do to come out of this as squeaky clean as possible, without regard to mom?

NOTE: I apologize to those of you who like to be the one to provide the moral or lesson to each story, but I’m ok in that department. I already know the moral of the story.
BTW: I live in Illinois.
