Please provide information about experiance or knowledge relating to the amount of time it takes to repair ones credit after a chapter 7 bankruptcy. All loans reaffrimed thru bankruptcy have always been on track and have remained current. Any info provided would be a great help. Thanks

7 yrs!!! and it also depends on what chapter, you might want to look for a credit repair company they can probably repair your credit in a matter of 6 mths, an charge like anywhere from 800-1200 dollars, but in your case it might be worth it!!
10 years……….tom
You can qualify for basically whatever you want immediately after bankruptcy. If you have enough money for a larger than average down payment a bank will be willing to work with you.
Of course, if you have enough money for that the IRS may decide to look into your bankruptcy a bit.
The bankruptcy will be on your record at least 10 years after you file – I am speaking from experience on this matter. I filed in 1999 and it is still there….But, I have more credit now then I did when I filed then.
If you are a man it is easier for you to rebuild your credit. I don’t know why this is, but it is the truth.
Good luck to you, bankruptcy is not fun, but sometimes a clean slate is the only way to go!
