Most loans are FHA guaranteed. You must wait at least three years according to FHA rules. Also , you must re-establish your credit so that you achieve a score that meets the guidelines set by lenders.

You would need to discuss this with a lender or two in your area. People who have gone through a foreclosure are sometimes approved for a subsequent mortgage but that depends on many factors such as the time that has lapsed since the foreclosure, whether your economic circumstances have changed, if you have a down payment, if you have stable employment and can afford the payments, etc.

A foreclosure will severally hurt your credit rating but you need to avoid using credit it costs you more than you can earn in the long run due to interest. Just save to buy what you want.
