Help! old judgement killing me getting a mortgage loan.

Well, I have a judgement against me for $11,681 filled in October 2003. I lost my job and had a car go back to the bank, which they then sold, and put a judgement against me for the difference. I'm told that no one will touch me with that judgement and that when any attorney goes to close that will have to be paid off first

to opt out or not to opt out? that is the question.

So, if I am in the process of GW some collections and lates, should I opt out?  What are the pros and cons?   And if I am also in the midst of going for a mortgage, does that change my options?   Also I recently saw a post on the mortgage thred that says if you dispute an item it will re-age the account.  Does that mean if I GW something now it will stay on a credit report for another 7 years??!???

Little Advice Needed, OC and CA removal

Hey guys, first post here but I post on other sites.  I just purchased my credit scores from TU and EQ and also have my credit reports from them, as well as a credit report from EX.   Here's the deal:  Credit card from 05 (HSBC) I could no longer pay on because I lost my job and literally had no income.  The amount was only around $566 total.  I missed 5 payments and HSBC assign a CA to collect the debt.  I had no money to pay them either.  HSBC ende up selling the debt to the same CA which they have been trying to collect on.  I verbally told the CA I would pay PFD in full but they wouldn't budge.  I sent a letter 2 weeks ago offering the same thing, still haven't heard back from them.   I would like to get both negative marks completely removed but don't know how I should go about getting the negative mark removed with HSBC since they sold the debt and they can no longer collect on the account
