LESS THEN
PERFECT CREDIT
MORTGAGE
There's Hope For Every Home Buyer With Less Than Perfect Credit
Have you been turned down by other mortgage lenders in St. Louis, St. Charles or anywhere in Missouri for a mortgage because of less than perfect credit? Are you concerned because you know you have had credit issues in the past or you just aren't sure of your credit situation?
We have all heard it is getting harder and harder to get a new home loan, especially if your credit scores are less than perfect. Currently, FHA allows for less than perfect credit score mortgage approvals, but many lenders have their own overlays to what FHA wants.
Today if you don't have a middle credit score higher than 620 to 640 many lenders are just saying NO to all home buyers unless you can put down more than 20% on your new home purchase.
Your 580 Credit Score or Higher May Get You a New Home!
FHA, is one of the best mortgages available to St. Louis, St. Charles and Missouri first time home buyers, home buyers with little money saved, less than perfect credit home buyers, or under employed home buyers.
FHA, has a mortgage program available to home buyers that have minimum credit scores of 580 or higher! But, most lenders ignore this program's guidelines to overlay even more restrictions on you to make it harder to get your new home.
