My middle FICO is 681, does this credit score disable me from getting a new home?

There are a few programs, which from your details, you should qualify for. With down payments as low as 3.5% down, you should be able to buy the home without problem even with your change of employment. Feel Free to email me or call me with any questions.

Great news, We only need a 620 FICO score to get you approved for a FHA loan with 3.5% down payment. If your a Veteran we could provide a ZERO down loan. Or we can offer a 5% down conventional loan with 680 FICO.Call me or email me for more information.dkester@thelendingco.com or 602-628-6500

Yes. Your 681 FICO score is sufficient to get you either a FHA, or VA (if you have been, or are, in the military), or conventional loan depending upon some other qualifying factors as well. Your work history may be a factor in getting thel loan depending upon how you can explain why you changed employment fields. With FHA, you only need a maximum of 3.5% down, VA nothing down, and conventional 5% or; possibly; less down. Check with a local mortgage broker in the area.

The short answer is no... 681 actually is a good score. And with FHA financing you only need 3.5% down. I'm here in AZ and would be more than happy to help you obtain financing. WilliamAcres.com

Unfortunately you would need two years in the same line of business but if you went to school for your new field that will count towards your two years. As for your credit, do you know your scores? Also how long have you had credit and when was your last late payment?Anthony Hood

681 is more than high enough to qualify for an FHA loan. Having already started to work on the collection account is great. FHA only requires a 3.5% down payment, and in today's market almost every deal includes the seller contributing enough to cover the buyer's closing costs. This means you could purchase your $175K home for as little as the $6,125 down payment. I am a licensed Arizona Mortgage Banker, and have done several transactions in and around Lake Havasu.
