 TITLE: How to Build Credit After a Bankruptcy CONTENT: Look Into a Credit-Builder Loan\n-------------------------------\nIt's normal to be nervous about taking out a loan after bankruptcy, but credit-builder loans come with features that help you rebuild your credit with less risk.\nA credit-builder loan works sort of like a loan in reverse. Instead of getting a lump sum of money upfront, you make monthly payments into a savings account that's managed by the lender. At the end of your payment term, which is usually one to two years, you receive the money you paid into the account. Typically the full amount is $1,000 or less.\nNot every bank offers credit builder loans, but you can find them through local credit unions, community banks or by searching online. END
