Is it too early to refinance or do we have to wait for the 10 year period?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Thomas Anthony Vogele (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Thomas Vogele & Associates, APC
There is so much misinformation, most of it urban legend, about what a discharged debtor can and cannot do. There is nothing preventing you from borrowing, refinancing or doing anything else post-discharge. The impediment is the other side of the transaction. Banks often will not lend to those who have filed a Chapter 7 case, at least on terms that don't punish the former debtor for their "transgressions." Bankruptcy itself does not prevent you from refinancing for ten years. A bankruptcy stays on your credit for ten years and thus makes it harder to get a loan, refinance a loan or do anything else that involves checking your credit report. By the way, anyone who promises you to get your bankruptcy removed from your credit report in exchange for a fee is both a liar and a crook that should be avoided and reported to the authorities. Good luck and expect to pay a higher rate than what borrowers with good credit pay.
