When you have gone through a Bankruptcy process, your ability to get finance is shattered. Then, restoring your credit is the first measure you need to take. Resorting to a mortgage loan in order to buy a home can be the solution to this problem and it will bring along other benefits. Immediately after bankruptcy is discharged your credit score is bottom low. What you need to do is start preparing for applying by increasing your credit score as much as possible. To do so, you need to meet all your payments on time, and start building some credit. Small steps to improve your credit score can be taken safely. Get a secured credit card and start using it to buy what you would otherwise pay in cash. The Credit Card issuer will inform credit agencies of your timely payments and this will increase your credit score.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the protector of consumer deposits for the last few decades, has been making efforts to minimize the ill effects of homeowners with mortgages who are losing their jobs, in a bid to prevent another big wave of foreclosures and short sales.The regulatory body ahs suggested that banks and other lenders grant struggling homeowners (who can prove that they are struggling due to recent job loss or involuntary pay cut) a forbearance. This means that borrowers get a small break from making their mortgage payments, lasting up to six months. This also gives homeowners the opportunity to negotiate with the bank for a loan modification or refinancing deal that might save their home from the decimation of a real estate short sale or a foreclosure.The chairwoman of the FDIC has released statements explaining that these strategies will, in addition to lessening losses experienced by lenders and the FDIC, be the right thing to do.The agency...more
