I made a couple of bad decisions when I was younger, one being the credit debt that I got into at age 18. I was not aware of the complications of this and have had bad credit for a while now.

It will be seven years next year and I would like to know if this will have any effect on getting a home loan. Will loan officers not see this old debt?
