Best Answer

In the process of having your home foreclosed upon, your credit rating probably took a beating. You can try to buy another house immediately, but you will probably have trouble finding a bank to loan you the money. You can buy as soon as you find a lender.

More information

Currently most financing is through HUD- and has to follow FHA guidelines. The reason most people are getting FHA financing is that they allow you to purchase a home with only 3.5% down, while most other lenders require 10% or more. In any case you can purchase a home through HUD 3 yrs after you have foreclosed. Other lenders can do it sooner but you will need a nice chunk down- 20% plus.

If you had an FHA insured home, you will have to wait for three years after the mortgage company claimed their refund.
