Re: Will a BK slow my roll? (pun intended)

Hi all,

Will be looking to purchase a car soon, and am wondering if my BK discharged in December 2011 will be a problem if i have a score which would otherwise qualify me for a decent rate. All auto loans on my reports are paid in full on time. My experian score is now 684, just paid down some CC's and hoping that gives it a boost too. Thanks!

Sounds like you should be OK off of the info you have given.

Thanks. Btw, 684 is actually my equifax score, not Experian.

I think you will be fine. A lot of the big lenders (Toyota, Nissan, Ford, etc) all have the ability to finance those with BK. I was recently approved by Lexus financial services my BK is 2.5 years old. Good Luck and keep us posted.

Oh okay, that's good to know! I will definitely report back after I've made a move.

Thanks!
