You will have to pay off the bankruptcy debts first, then you’ll probably have to wait a few more years.
I was able to buy a house with zero down in early 2006 – 5 yrs after my Chap 7 BK was discharged.
Definitely won;t be that easy anymore – no more Zero down mortgages – especially for people coming out of BK

You will need downpayment closing costs, perfect credit after your BK and have to wait at least 3 years before even being considered. Look at it this way if you borrowed someone 100K and they stiffed you but a year later asked to do it again would you?

No. Chapter 13 will definately ruin your credit for 5-8 years so you won’t be able to get a loan and the purpose of bankrupsy is to restructure debits and clean up your credit. Not shirk off your debits to buy a new home.

The guidelines for FHA loans allow you to obtain a mortgage after 12 months in a chapter 13 bk with the permission of the trustee. If the bk has been discharged you should be ok as long as you have re-established your credit and have a clean payment history since the bk.
You will also need to pass all of the other requirements/guidelines for an FHA loan.

no problem as long as you have 100% cash.
You will not be able to get a loan for 6-8 years.
