Lenders will always take the lower of both of your middle scores. So even if your husband's credit is better than yours, the banks will use your score to qualify. Maureen MartinJMJ FinancialMMartin@JMJ.ME
We have to talk the LOWEST MID score of ALL borrowers when it comes to loan pricing.. but understand that certain loan products don't have a major difference in the interest rate because of lower scores.. FHA for example. has very little difference in the rate form a 650 borrower to a 750 borrower.. Also, there's ways to get around if your spouses score is not high enough for qualifying.. if you have time, give me a call and i'd be happy to explain. I'm a preferred Lender with California and Arizona being my primary markets.

If your wife can qualify on her own, then just put her on the loan and you on title at closing. You'll get a better rate that way. Because they take the lower of the two middle credit score.Any questions, call me. I do loans in California only.Ledingham Mortgage, phone: 650-352-5656 Susan
