bankruptcy and 700 club

Does anyone know how long after bankruptcy is it possible to earn a 700 score? I know that can depend on certain factors but didnt know if fico will make u wait a certain amount of time or?

Re: bankruptcy and 700 club

Are you talking Ch 13 or Ch 7?

 

I was discharged from CH 13 in 2/09.  App'd for mortgage five months later - in 7/09 - my middle FICO score was 730.

I did have to work dang hard on cleaning things up and did some moderate rebuilding to get there.
