Most people assume that a smaller bankruptcy is easier to overcome when applying for a mortgage — but the opposite is often true, and the reason why reveals a lot about how lenders think. Most major lenders won't even consider a mortgage application from someone with a past bankruptcy unless the amount exceeded $50,000, and understanding the logic behind that rule is something every borrower with past credit challenges needs to know. This episode breaks down exactly why this threshold exists, what other conditions apply, and what your options are if your bankruptcy falls below it.
