Buried In Debt, But Want To Purchase A Georgia Home? Find Out How Bankruptcy Can Help.
Contrary to popular belief, clients can purchase homes during an active bankruptcy repayment plan and our Northwest Georgia firm has several clients yearly that do just that! Many of our clients’ FICO scores increased so dramatically during the term of their case that they can qualify for a home loan before their case is over. These clients are walking away from bankruptcy with paid off automobile loans, a new home, and no other debts!
Although it is necessary for you to get court permission to sign the mortgage note and close, you are free to seek financing to purchase a home and even enter into a contract for the purchase of a Georgia home. All purchase and sale contracts must include a bankruptcy exhibit specifying that the impending closing is contingent upon court approval. It is important for the client to shop around for the best rates based on their FICO score. Court approval may cause the closing date to be stretched farther out than normal.
