I would suggest looking into a lender who does USDA Rural housing loans, depending on the area in PA you maybe able to utilize their loan programs.scott@mortgage-me.usif you have any further questions.
You're going to have trouble finding a loan with a score less than 620. Check out my blog "First Steps" or you can email me for suggestions on how to improve your score. pdumouchel@primelending.com or call 843.619.6025 tomorrow. I lend in PA and can work with you if you like.
Fha doesn't have a minimum Fico score. Participating lenders do.If you'd like contact me through the link to portal and we can discuss options, your going to need to out down 10%. Thanks Manuel
620 would the be the bare minimum score for just about anything you would want to do. I've seen a lot of lenders actually require 640. Obviously the higher it is the better. It would also depend on why the score was 599 as opposed to 640. Without knowing any more detailed information, that's all I can answer. If you would like to discuss further feel free to give me a call. 856-853-1234. Good luck to you and your wife.
