...but it's starting to dim 
After a 5 year long process of rebuilding my credit w/ the help of advisors, attorneys, and utilizing MyFico and other similar products, I am now in the position of purchasing a home. My wife and I currenly live in a small starter home that we had purchased under her credit 9 years ago. While it's a nice home, we have a growing family, and needing to upsize. While my wife's credit is still nearly perfect (I didn't let her follow my poor judgement when I was young), mine is FINALLY to the point where we can purchase a new home and have both of our income count. We both have great jobs, and can afford a new place after eliminating basically all debt sans a 5% debt/credit ratio on a few CCs that helped me build my credit.
I had 2 judgements that needed to be paid (store retail cards I acquired 15 years ago), and these have now been paid off and settled w/ the help of an attorney. Our mortgage broker has stated that we are prequalified to purchase a new home pending the satisfaction of these judgements (don't need to be vacated, just shown as "satisfied or paid").
One of the creditors updated the case immediately, and had the satisfaction of judgement completed w/in less than 48 hours of getting paid. The other creditor (Midland Funding), has yet to file for satisfaction.
I have attempted to speak w/ my attorney, but I feel that he is getting tired w/ my calls. If anyone has been in similar situations...how long did it take for you to receive a letter of satisfaction, or have it updated w/ the court? I live in MO, and attempted to find the answer myself in terms of how long the creditor has, but haven't found much info.
Any info would be appreciated. I check the court's website every 10 minutes just hoping that it will be the moment it's finally updated. Just wondering if someone out there has been in the same situation and could help ease my anxiety/OCD regarding this.
Thanks in advance!
The time period to file a satisfaction with the court is 30 days from the date its paid off.
