Portland Bankruptcy: After BK – Check your Credit Report Carefully

Right before you decide to take on a new mortgage figure out with a good mortgage broker how much home you can afford.  Go through the underwriting process and make sure that you get pre approved for the loan and how much they are willing to lend you before to strike out across Oregon looking for that new home.  While not every lender in the Portland area will take on post bankruptcy clients they will often refer you to those who will. Don't be shy about asking.
