Hi Gina, Sorry to hear about your dilemma. There is hope. Even today in this fast moving market there is an opportunity for you to own a home for less than what you would be paying in rent. My first suggestion would be to contact one of your local lenders. Have a good conversation and let them access your credit. Have a straight up conversation regarding your debts and liabilities, (they will find out anyway). If you qualify, you can find a great agent or have your lender recommend one. If you don't qualify for a loan you will be looking for a rent to own or a rental. Here in Arizona, we have down payment assistance programs and a couple of lenders that will buy a house and rent it back to you with the agreement to sell it to you in two or three years. Talk to a reputable lender first.
