First time buyer question FHA

Short answer is 'No'. In order for your income to be considered, you must be on the loan. Once a Chapter 7 is filed, there is a two-year penalty period that must pass from the date the BK is discharged by the court. If it's a Chapter 13, then at least twelve months must pass with an on-time payment history on the plan AND permission from the Trustee. ~ Bert Carpenter, The LoansA2z Team of NEXA Mortgage ~ NMLS 40586 ~ Licensed in AZ, CA, GA, IL, OR & WA...
