Can we get into a Home Loan with credit score of 612?

Can you get a loan with a 612 score and 10% down... YES, but.... Just a score and a down payment statement do make a loan approval make. Most lenders will NOT approve a loan with that score. Anything below 640, and you are not welcome by most lenders. Of course assuming they take that score, you still have to go through the entire underwriting process. You are also likely to pay a higher rate and higher costs for the privilege of getting approved with that very low score. I suggest taking a good strong look at why your score is just 612, do what you can to improve it, and come back into the home market when your score is above 640.

Hello Franci,I beleive you will qualify for a loan with what you have given so far. We would have to get more details about your credit to make sure we suggest the best product that suits your needs. 612 is a low score these days but that does not mean we cannot package the loan for you. There are many specific factors as FHA financing, conventional with no pmi so we definately need to get more details. Hope this reply helps.Jay Patel, www.0pointloan.com

Yes you can get into a mortgage loan with a credit score of 612. With a credit score of 612 the only option will be a FHA loan and you may be given a higher rate. Give me a call if you would like to discuss your options 602-531-7040.

Franci, Unfortunately you won't be able to go conventional financing with a 612 score but an FHA loan is a good option. Do you know if 612 is your middle FICO score? If your middle score is higher you might be able to go conventional financing. Either way we should be able to get this done for you.

FInd a broker that offers FHA financing...and yes there are LLPA's or loan level pricing adjustments, but at the end of the day you will have a fixed rate under 5% which is still GREAT!!! Wwhen I started in this business people were overjoyed to get a rate of 7% with perfect credit....

Not really. You can still get credit in this scoring range but you can expect to pay a very high interest rate. A score of 580-619 is not too bad ...620-679 is an okay score...anything above that puts you in the good category. Hope this helps you. To get help contact us at: globalprivatelenders@gmail.com

Well.. Much more information is needed, but on the surface, your score will not prevent you from purchasing a home.. However I'm not quite sure you will be able to qualify for a $250K home.. Lenders look at "Qualifying ratios", for both the housing payment and overall debt and compare it against your monthly income.. For a housing payment with $4000 monthly income, you're at or above 40%... that's not good, especially with a low credit score... Best advice I can give you is to contact a local mortgage broker, not a bank, and apply with them.. They have access to numerous lenders and can find the right lender for your particular loan scenario. Plus they can show you what you would actually qualify for so you're not wasting your time looking at homes you cannot afford.. WilliamAcres.com
