Needless to say, because of the bankruptcy, if you are applying for a mortgage in San Diego immediately after discharge, your credit may still not be as good as you wish and you will be charged higher interest rates. However, if you have done your part to stay on top of all your payments and not over extending yourself after the bankruptcy, you will be able to get a mortgage approved at a reasonable interest rate, even after bankruptcy and especially after a two year waiting period or so.

Know then that once you buy the house, the only way to lower the interest rate is by refinancing. Refinancing takes time and costs money. So, if you find yourself in a situation in which you will not be able to make the payments due to the high interest rates, consider waiting until your credit rating improves. Once your credit score is better, you can start trying to get a mortgage approved. In the meantime, you can rent before buying a house.
