hello,
i am one year post bk ch 7. i am a single mom of one, recently divorced. i make $42k per year and am looking to buy a townhome for $142k. I have been at my job for 4 yrs. I only have 1 car payment of $288, 1 cc of about $18 per month, and student loan of $122 per month. My ex-husband has a truck that i am on as a joint loan but in the divorce decree states he got the truck, it is $489 per month. Will the truck count against me to qualify? The guy selling the townhome says it shouldnt be a problem. This is a new construction and he also said i could go with CHAFA which is the Colorado Housing Authority for my down payment and my loan. My scores are 640, 609, and 589. Do you think i will be able to get a loan? He states my payments would be about $900 per month which i could afford. Any imput would be appreciated...Thanks,
