    Question by : Are there any banks that give mortgage loans to people with bad credit?
    I am looking to buy my first home. My goal is to get to a 620 credit score but I know this will take quite some time. I was wondering if there are banks out there that give you loans to buy a home if you have bad credit or if there are programs out there that help you fix your credit to get into your first home? My best credit score of the three credit agencies is 550. The worst is 490. Please help!

    Short of having at least 20% down and paying closing costs and mortgage insurance and over 8% interest, or finding a house you can afford to pay all cash for, I don’t see it happening. I’d work on your credit and wait. I’m sorry to tell you that, I’m in the same boat and working two jobs and the goal for me is to either put as much down as possible or buy outright. You could try FHA loans and they might work with you, but I’d concentrate on getting as much down as possible or if you can, save till you can do it all cash. Sorry to sound harsh, cold and cruel, but life often is and I’m just telling you the truth.

  • I need help from the folks out there who Approve Mortgage Loans?

    Question by Blitz: I need help from the folks out there who Approve Mortgage Loans?
    I need some advice desparately. I am trying to get financed for a loan and am running into a problem and am not sure if I am dealing with people who don’t know what they are doing. I purchased a house in 2000. In 2003 my mortgage company (Bank A) sold my loan to another bank (Bank B). Bank B had my loan until 2005 – I sold the house. The finance company that is looking to fiinance me now (Bank C) is asking Bank B to provide them with three years of pay history and are expecting Bank B to give them Bank A’s information. Well, Bank B won’t give it to Bank C, but Bank A no longer exists. This is holding up the approval for my loan, so my questions are (1) do banks expect all banks to divulge other bank’s information like this and is is normal practice (2) why would this hold up my approval everything else is a go (3) should I be looking for another bank or is there validity to what Bank C is doing. Anyone know how this works?

    Did they ask you for mortgage payment statement/ stubs? Bank B should give you payment information to Bank C. They are just trying to see if you are up to date on your payments and if you are good customer. Bank B should have Bank A’s information on your register. You should try a different lender if this issue does not end, or ask Bank C who they are talking to at Bank B and talk to them yourself. Maybe they need your permission and won’t disclose the information to the third party.

    Question by curious1: are there mortgage loans that will use only your HiGHEST score?
    I have had credit problems in the past and would like to get a 155k mortgage loan. My high score is 620 and would like to know if there are loans that will use the high score?

    You should talk with a bond broker and let them look over all your stats. They may know a bank that will look at your highest score. Every bank is a little different. Some are real robotic and only live by regiment rules. Others take a more realistic look at your score and income done a more informed decision.
