What happens after a short sale?

So you short sold your home,now what? The headache is behind you now right?  No so fast if you are thinking about buying another home. After a short sale there is a three year mandatory waiting period. You have to re-establish credit right away. The worst is to have late payments for any kind after a short sale or foreclosure.  This shows a pattern of good credit and that the short sale was just getting caught in a bad economy or loss of employment.  if you have a hefty down payment you can use private financing or owner financing. Buy a good home,then refinance when the three year period is up. You will pay more in interest,but you can buy right now in this down market.
