Credit FICO score of 678, $185,000 home with 20% down, can I get a mortgage?

I've been employed for close to a decade, credit card debt had my hamstrung about 3 years ago, but I am rebuilding. If I can get that 20% down payment with my annual income of 65k, can I get this home? by chance_863_460 from Jacksonville, Florida. Dec 21st 2011 Reply

Should only need 3.5% down, possibly $0 down USDA. Keep the extra money in your pocket, every $10,000.00 down on a mortgage only reduces your payment by $50.00 per month. You can reach me tonight on my cell phone at 352-875-6907. I'll be leaving for Christmas vacation with my wife and kids tomorrow at 2:00 and won't be back until 1/2/2012 so try to call me tonight so I can ask you a couple more questions and give you some solid answers. Talk to you then. Rob Ziebart

Yes you can! In fact, you do not need 20% down. FHA only requires a down payment of 3.5%, and in many cases the interest rate is as good or better. My best advice is to contact a local Mortgage Banker/Broker, rather than one of the big banks. Unlike a bank employee, who is most likely just an order taker, a Mortgage Broker/Banker is Trained, Tested and Licensed in all aspects of Mortgage Origination. He/She will have access to loan products of many lenders, not just those of one bank. More importantly, they will be able to walk you through the pros and cons of each loan type so you can make a great decision as to which loan type you want.
