hi i was wondering if me and my husband would qualify for a home loan of about 200, 000 we are fist time home buyers .... also my husband credit is like 650 last time we checked and i dont really have nor good or bad just starded building my credit..... Do you think we have a change??

Carmen, when looking at your FICO score and buying a home you need to have a 640 or higher. FHA requires a 640 FICO score and takes the lowest FICO to qualify, if there are 2 borrowers, and if 1 borrower, FHA will take the Middle score, when all 3 credit bureaus report scores. I do work with all 3 credit bureaus and can improve FICO scores within 3 days, if there is something that is fixable. Since you are just starting to build your credit it is important to not be late and any debt in the last 12 months. Hope this helps. Click on my link for more info. RC

Carmen, the good news is $200,000 is not a very high loan amount. For an FHA loan, with an average interest rate of 5% right now with minimum down payment (3.5%-5%) your payment should be around $1,100 per month (just an estimate with mortgage insurance).

Hi Carmen. FHA allows credit scores down to 580, however, it is almost impossible to get financed below 620. Most states have down payment assistance programs allowing scores down to 600. Based on a 650 score, you should have no trouble obtaining a loan. There are other things that come into play, though. Your debt to income ratios play an important role, as well.I am available to talk to you further should you need to. I am able to help folks in 47 states and can be reached at 866-901-3576 or PatrickM@Northpointe.com
