Best Answer

That depends on your credit rating and whether you can find a lender willing to risk loaning more money to you. That is unlikely since your current history shows you were unable to pay your mortgage. Lenders are tightening their standards in reaction to the present foreclosure crisis. It may take you several years to improve your credit record enough to qualify for a mortgage again. You also need time to build up a savings reserve for a down payment and to show you have resources to fall back on in an emergency.

If you had a foreclosure two years ago and filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy last year that was dismissed when will you be able to get a new mortgage?

In theory you can get a new mortgage anytime, but it is going to be more dependent on your credit score, how much equity you have, and your mortgage payment history over the past 12-months. Your grading will be determined by how long ago you filed the BK and how long ago the foreclosure was filed, but you should be able to qualify for a new mortgage loan.
