You Can Bounce Back After Bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy is NOT the end, and you shouldn’t perceive it in such a fashion. You can recover from bankruptcy, and all sorts of people do just that. In fact, we have helped thousands of these customers over the last twenty plus years.
A bankruptcy legally can remain on your credit report for up to 10 years, however, its effect on your credit score can be diminished as soon as the day your case is closed. If you adopt responsible credit habits, such as paying your bills on time, using only a small portion of your available credit and not applying for too much credit at once, you will see your credit score improve regardless of past issues.
Keep this very simple but powerful fact in mind. You have to get, and use, credit in order to build your credit score. Living in a “cash-only” fashion might be a prudent decision for those who don’t handle credit well, but if you want to rebuild your credit score, then you need to “get back in the game” and use credit.
Learn from Your Mistakes.
While it is possible for file more than one bankruptcy, this is hardly the way to live one’s life. The problems associated with filing Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy are numerous, life-altering and life-disrupting. Your best move is to learn from the mistakes of the past. It is time to work to rebuild and permanently maintain a good credit history and a good credit score. You may find that you have to alter your lifestyle and purchasing habits, but in the long run, when you have an important major purchase such as a house, student loan for your child’s education or a car, you will be able to obtain the loans that you need to make it happen.
