Nora, I agree with Henry, most lenders are going to want to see 620 credit scores. The good news is that it isn't typically that difficult to raise a credit score from 570 to 620. There are probably some strong factors bringing the score down that can be corrected and have the score up and ready to buy a home within 6 months or so, depending on where his profile is now. Talk to a reputable mortgage person, have them pull credit now and then advise you and your fiance where to go from here to get into the qualifying range.
That score is very low, and will be very problematic for getting any loan whatsoever. I suggest not bothering at this point trying to get a loan, and instead, work on credit repair. Once you get the score up, then apply for a home loan. www.VA-IRRRL-Loan-MN.com
