VA requires (2) years from the transfer date (sale date on public record) of the home that was involved in the short sale. Fell free to contact me at 702-420-2250 to get you started.

2 years for VA as mentioned. However, if you really needed financing before that, I am participating in an FHA program that allows only 12 months after bankruptcy and/or short sale if the causes for them was a reduction in income that was out of your control. VA does have better terms so that's the best option if you can wait the 2 years. Please make sure that you speak with an experienced lender who will lay out various options and intelligently discuss the pros and cons of each with you. I'm happy to help with the financing or just give you advice. If you need more information, or a competing rate quote call, email or use my live support button to discuss or get in touch with me.

At least 1 year after the CH13 is filed, if you are done with it and more than 1 year since filed it may be possible if you have reestablished credit. Be prepared for the underwriter to expect very strong documentation that the reasons for the bankruptcy and shortsale are not likely to recur... I can help: pdumouchel@primelending.com or http://pdumouchel.primelending.com or 843-619-6025 **PrimeLending was the #4 purchase mortgage lender in the US in 2012 and 2013 as determined by MarketTrac(c) for Jan-Dec 2012 & 2013
