Frequently asked questions
- How soon after bankruptcy or foreclosure can we buy again?
- Seasoning depends on the event and the program. Conventional and government loans have published waiting periods; non-QM recent-event products can be shorter with larger down payments and reserves. Bring discharge/sale dates for an exact read.
- Will a recent short sale permanently block financing?
- No. After required seasoning and re-established credit, many borrowers finance again — sometimes via non-QM first if agency timing is not met yet.
