No. Any lender worth anything will discover the foreclosure.

You must be behind in payment, that’s why they foreclose your property. If that’s the case, who would give you the loan?

When you are in foreclosure, the lender in the 1st lien position is going to take your home and all your equity. Any 2nd mortgage (current or future) risks losing everything. No lender (not even a private lender) will risk lending you money on a 2nd mortgage, unless they are willing to pay off the first mortgage and take the 1st lien position. What you should be looking for is someone to refinance your entire loan. You will need a minimum of 25% equity to qualify and you should expect a rate from 10 to13%. If you dont have 25% equity, you lender may consider a “short sale” or “short payoff”.
