I've recovered my credit for the most part by SCarter from Winchester, Virginia. Jan 11th 2013 Reply

Yes.. However, the amount of your entitlement will be lower, which in turn will lower how much of a home you can purchase. If you want to restore your benefits to 100%, then assuming the VA had a loss as a result of your foreclosure, you would have to pay back that loss to VA. If 3 years has passed, then you can qualify for FHA with 3.5% down and you won't have to pay VA anything.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. 480-287-5714 WilliamAcres.com

More specifics are needed, such as the Date of the Foreclosure, your current Credit Score, the reason behind the foreclosure, etc. The more details you can provide, the better the information will be. I'd be happy to work with you directly (offline) so let me know if I can be of help. I work for a Federally Chartered Bank and can originate loans Nationwide as a Direct Lender! Good Luck!

The quick answer is YES... There will be a waiting period, and you may have reduced VA entitlement. Sit down with a local non-bank licensed Loan Officer experienced in VA loans for a personal review. www.VA-IRRRL-Refinance-MN.com

Yes, But like the others have said it's not as easy as just saying yes. There are too many factors involved. Call one of LOCAL lenders that have responded and they can better access your situation.

Lots of incorrect info here. Yes you can get another VA loans and you do not need to pay back the losses. The $0 amount you may borrow will be reduced because your entitlement has also been reduced. However, if the loan amount is large enough, you can use tier 2 entitlement. Be sure that your lender is an expert in VA loans. Most lenders and loan officers do not understand the program.
