Hi Friend,

You can finance a new home purchase 36 months after a foreclosure. If you go to the Fannie mae or Freddie Mac websites you can look under lending guidelines and confirm this for yourself. You might try a rent to own or lease option program to get back into homeownership faster. I offer credit repair services and have a 74% success rate in removing foreclosures off credit reports. I will also provide you with my FREE book to assist you with some credit score boosting strategies for you to begin to rebuild your credit rating. Good luck

As a rule of thumb the foreclose record will stay in your credit report 7 years. The only way to find out if you qualify for a loan you have to ask a loan broker or your lending instittion . Good Luck

Unfortunately,after foreclosure,you will have to wait 5-7 years before you can purchase again.
