The financing isn't soley based on credit history. It is also based on income, employment history & other factors. The primary borrower is the person that makes the most money and then their middle credit score is used to determine their eligibilty for certain programs.

If you are lucky, yes. But most likely, no lender will give you a mortgage loan if you are or have declared bankruptcy.


What is chapter 13 about?

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is for individuals who have some steady income, in general. An excellent primer about either chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy is "The New Bankruptcy, will it work for You?" 3rd edition by Stephen Elias, published in 2009 by Nolo; 346.078 E42N Dewey decimal. Also you might contact a paralegal or lawyer specializing in filing bankruptcy in the state of jurisdiction.


How can one get a loan if they have declared bankruptcy?

Getting a loan after bankruptcy can be difficult depending on what type of bankruptcy one files. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy, one cannot even apply for credit during the length of the bankruptcy. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, that is a different story. One can file Chapter 7 bankruptcy and as soon as it is discharged can apply for credit. The only problem with getting a loan after bankruptcy is that you may have to have a co-signer until you build up some positive credit.
