Hi. There are "No Credit Check Mortgages" but they have a higher interest rate and you have to put 25% down on the price of a house. Yes you can. The key is ....did you include your installment loans (autos/previous mortgages) in with your bankruptcy? If not, they lender will look favorably on that. If you did, then your best way to rebuild your credit is to put as much money into CD's at your bank and then borrow against them. As long as they report the loan to the credit bureau, you will have installment credit started again. DON'T pay them off early. Lenders are looking for a payment history.
The best advice is for you to wait until your bankruptcy is discharged and you have recovered your financial health. Savings, financial education and advice are all useful to allow you to build your financial life on more solid ground. Avoid borrowing since it will allow you to get ahead of yourself. Take the time to do this right, and you will have no regrets.
