It is unusuall to receive discharge within 30 days. You must have misheard or they must have made a mistake. It usually takes up to 60 days or longer. after your discharge you can try to aquire property but you probably won't find someone willing to give you a loan so soon after bankruptcy. usually you can get a home after 2 years if you work on your credit score. For more information on how to repair your credit you can go to [url]http://creditboards.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8033[/url] or you can look at more information on [url]www.creditinfocenter.com[/url].
