VA Loan with 560 score possible?

Yes!

In theory, Yes. In practice, not really. The VA doesn't actually do home loans, lenders do. Basically, the VA provides some insurance on a loan for the lender if the homeowner defaults. If lenders underwrite to VA guidelines, they can get this 'insurance'. But there is a big disconnect between what the VA says is allowable, and what lenders will actually do. So while VA says you can potentially get a VA loan with a 560 credit score, it is virtually impossible to actually find a lender that will give you that loan with such a low score. Lenders simply say that score is too much risk. Anything below about a 620 score will put you in the too much risk category. Then next, even if a lender says they will lend with such a low score, there is generally something on the credit report that is giving you the low score that will get you denied. My advice is to work on improving credit first. For VA loans in MN, WI, and SD, you can find me at www.VA-IRRRL-Loan-Mn.com
