What is an acceptable credit score for FHA purchase?
There is no real minimum score for FHA lending. Many of the lenders that we deal with do require a 620 score in order to get the best rate. We do have programs available for lower credit sscores. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to give me a call. (845) 621-4251 EXT- 10. Thank You, Philip...

Please give me a call or send me an email to discuss further, I would be happy to answer any other questions you may have...
