How does the deed in lieu get reported to the credit agencies?

Answered by attorney Jeffrey M. Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at J.M. Cook, P.A.
The mortgage company was more than likely not reporting on the loan since it was part of the bankruptcy. Therefore, there is a better than average chance, the DIL will not show up on your credit report. As to the "HFA mortgage", those requirements change all the time and will also be affected by whether the failed mortgage was an FHA mortgage. I would suggest you rent for a while until you build up a substantial down payment.

Yes, your age will not prevent you from filing bankruptcy. You should meet with an experienced bankruptcy attorney so you can discuss your entire situation and determine whether bankruptcy is your best option.
