what banks offer home equity loans after bankruptcy by gevalynn975 from Pittsfield, Maine. Jan 14th 2014
If your bankruptcy was recent, your odds of getting a loan is pretty slim to none. If it has been a few years and you have good re-established credit, your odds are pretty good. www.MortgagesUnlimited.biz
Every bank out there will give a home equity loan after a bankruptcy.. the question is how long after the bankruptcy must you wait.. since you didn't provide that info, it's anyone's guess.. Typically, lenders offering 2nds, or HELOC's want to see a minimum 4 years post BK before approving you.. this is assuming there was no mortgage associated with your BK.. if there was, you probably wont get a 2nd or HELOC until the BK falls off your credit report.. Doing a cash out refinance though is a different story.. depending on how much equity you have, you can do a cash out refi up to 85% LTV. FHA will do it if your 2 years out of BK, and no home was involved in the BK.. Conventional will be 2 to 4 years depending on circumstances.
