A recent late payment can drop your credit score about 60 points.


Can you get approved for a mortgage with a 651 credit score?

Sure, although you may have to come up with a larger down payment than someone with a credit score of 700.


What type of credit score does someone need to get a no down payment home loan?

If a person wishes to get a no down payment home loan he or she needs an acceptable credit score so that the loaner is convinced that the person has adequate income to repay the loan. Usually 620 or higher is expected.


What down payment assistance programs are there?

My co-worker borrowed funds to hold them on deposit. The funds were verified so she could qualify for her mortgage. It was easy to get the loan with no credit check because she agreed to just hold the funds on deposit. Then she got a down payment assistance program to make her down payment for her, and she just gave back the deposited funds loan proceeds to the lender. It also helped her credit. I know she got the loan with creditloader dot com, but I don't know what kind of down payment assistance she used. Can anyone recommend a down payment assistance program that is still widely accepted? jameswalker@inbox.lv


Can you get a mortgage if you have about a 600 FICO score and your wife has around a 650 score?

If your credit score is low, your down payment could be increased to compensate for it. Your credit score, yearly income, past repayment history all factor in to a loan acceptance.

Can i get car finance with a credit score of 600?

It is possible, but not certain. 600 is considered a "bad" credit score. You will be charged a much higher interest rate than someone with a good credit score, and may be required to make a larger down payment.
