Want A Mortgage, Need Expert Advice
Currently my wife and I are shopping for a new home, we have found one we both like and need a mortgage. I bring in all of the money in the household, and the wife is a stay at home mom. The issue is that I have bad credit, and hers is near perfect. is there anyway that we can have her apply individually and use my income? by marty3992 from Topeka, Kansas. Jun 14th 2010

The credit score of your wife will not negate your bad credit score, whatever it is, that will be what the loan is based on. You need a 580 to get an FHA loan (still available, but at higher rates), 620 will get you better rates, 740 will get you the best rates.
