Hi Tom,
Talk with a Mortgage Lender. Depending upon your bankruptcy
FHA requires 1 year - Prior to applying for a new Mtg.
VA requires 2 years - Prior to applying for a new Mtg.
Your score should be sufficient; and lenders will look at you as long as you have re-established on-time payments / credit history.
Secured credit cards for $200 - use them for gas and pay regularly, are known to help.
