I have close to 60k in credit card debt which was accrued during a period of unemployment a few years ago.
I have a bankruptcy lawyer filing for me who says I won't have any problem getting chapter 7.
I am married but the lawyer said this will not affect my wife's credit at all.
My question is around being able to buy a house. I currently make approximately 110k per year (base salary is 95k). My wife makes about 30k. I am wondering if we'd be able to use her credit to get a mortgage? She has good credit but not much income - I am wondering if the combination of my income and her credit, along with a high down payment will be enough to get a mortgage?
Big thanks to anyone who can give me some insight on this
