Bad Credit Mortgage Loans – How To Get Approved
Persistence is the key working toward getting approved for a bad credit mortgage loan. There are many factors that you, as a borrower have control over that can help you get approved faster and easier. There are guidelines that most sub-prime lenders go by that, if you know them, can help you move through the process without getting stuck, unable to get financing.If you have a bankruptcy or foreclosure, even if they are recent, do not despair. Many sub-prime or mortgage lenders have what's called, guidelines for bankruptcy or foreclosure seasoning. That means that they have a set amount of time that must go by from the time of a bankruptcy or foreclosure before they will lend to a borrower.
Usually this time is 2-3 years, but many sub-prime lenders have no seasoning time, which means, if your credit score is above a certain point, you could get approved the day after your bankruptcy discharge. Other sub-prime lenders have bankruptcy or foreclosure seasoning of 6 months or a year. The biggest factor here will be your credit score.Sub-prime or mortgage lenders will look closely at your credit score. In order to get 100% financing with bad credit, lenders will usually need to see you have a credit score of at least 600 or higher. There are quite a few things you can do to raise your credit score to be above this 600 mark.
Here are a few suggestions:1. Check your credit report for inaccuracies. Make sure all accounts included in bankruptcies and foreclosures are reporting accurately. If they show up as an open collection or unpaid account, charge-off or something else, this could be unnecessarily hurting your credit score. It will look like another, separate credit blemish instead of just the one.
Make sure the bankruptcies and foreclosures are reporting accurately. Make sure accounts that are paid off, show up as being paid off, or accounts that are closed, show up as being closed. 2. Pay-off any small collection accounts or past due accounts that you can. Every account that you pay off will help boost your score.
Once you have done this, get a letter of notification that the account is paid off and talk to your lender. Most lenders have programs where they can, for a $75 fee per item, provide proof to the credit bureaus that an account has been paid off and have your credit and credit score appropriately adjusted within a day or two. This program is sometimes called a "wrap it up" service. If you are in a hurry to get financed, this may be worth it to you. 3.
Pay down open credit line balances. If you can even pay down the balances on any open lines of credit, this will boost

Negative impact on my credit score
I can understand that the banks cannot collect money on someone who has filed chapter 7. But if the bank wants to take back the property in the enforcement of the lien, they must file foreclosure proceedings against the home. Being that the foreclosure goes into the public records, and ones FICO score has public records included in the report will that foreclosure be scored and reported and still have a negative impact on my credit score?

Any advice would be appreciated.
cosignor filed bankruptcy
Hello all,
I'm curious is my cosignor is allowed to claim a chapter 13 on our home without my knowledge. I've heard he's not allowed to do that. We are also going through a short-sale right now.

Maybe it is possible...I'm just looking for answers to continue our shortsale. It may be possible t...

your credit score. Your credit score is lowered when lines of credit are maxed out. You can make good use of your money by paying down credit card balances to boost your score.Once you have used some of these techniques to boost your credit score, be persistent about contacting and applying with many different mortgage lenders. Many mortgage loan brokers claim that if they can't do the loan, then no one can.
That is simply not true. All mortgage loan brokers have connections with many different lenders and loan programs. What may be impossible with one, can be very possible with another broker. If your score is around 600 or slightly higher, you will probably have a pre-payment penalty. Pretty much all mortgage loans will come with a pre-payment penalty.
Talk to your lender about the details of the pre-payment penalty. Find out how long the penalty will last and exactly how much money the penalty is. How much is the fine for pre-payment on the loan? This is an important factor to consider when comparing lenders.To get a approved for a bad credit mortgage loan, be persistent, work on your credit score as much as you can to get it above that 600 mark and apply with or contact many lenders to compare mortgage loan programs.Visit here to see a list of our recommended lenders for mortgage lenders: www.abcloanguide.com/lessthanperfectcredit.shtml..
