Yes. You would need to be approved by the bank and it would check your credit record.
Your credit score has a significant impact on the mortgage rate you can qualify for. A higher credit score typically leads to a lower interest rate on your mortgage, saving you money over the life of the loan.

Generally, late payments over 30 days late are reported to a credit reporting agency. After that, late mortgage payments can become "missed" mortgage payments.

Let me answer the question this way: the addition of somebody with low credit can't help a mortgage application, and may kill it. A lot depends on the mortgage being applied for (all mortgages have, as a criteria for acceptance, a range of acceptable credit scores) and how low, in fact, the spouse's credit scores are. Talk it over with the professional handling your mortgage. If, for instance, you need to add the spouse for income reasons, you might be better off to get a different sort of mortgage. Good luck.
Yes, a mortgage broker can help people with bad credit get a mortgage loan. They specialize in this area and can facilitate discussions between the buyer and financial institutions. While you will always need to pay for any liens and judgements before closing on a mortgage, they may be able to help you with inaccuracies. Avoid folding these expenses into your mortgage. It will cost you more over time since this type of mortgage will be at a higher percentage of interest plus mortgage insurance. It may be wiser in the long run to clear these expenses and to save for a 20% down payment than to jump into a mortgage at this time.
Before you apply for a mortgage you need to get an updated copy of your credit report to make sure the information on it is accurate.

If you cannot find a lender who will approve you for a mortgage, look into a FHA loan. These are a federally insured loan that usually only require a 2% down payment.

Purchasing a house can temporarily lower your credit score due to the new debt and credit inquiries, but responsible mortgage payments can improve your score over time.
If one is trying to get a second mortgage while having bad credit it may be difficult due to one's credit standing. There are many companies that do provide second mortgages to those with bad credit and one can choose something such as a fixed mortgage rate so one knows what the payments will be over time and thus allowing one the opportunity to attempt to repair one's credit score.
Once a person is deceased all debt is completely erased from that person's credit. If they own a home and do not have a will nor a co-signer of the home loan the government will take over the ownership of that home. If they have credit card debt, the debt is forgiven and no longer in existense.
A recent late payment of over 30 days may hurt your credit score up to 60 points.
To take a mortgage on your house, you need to apply for a loan from a bank or mortgage lender. They will assess your financial situation, credit history, and the value of your home to determine the amount you can borrow. If approved, you will sign a mortgage agreement, which is a legal contract that allows the lender to use your home as collateral. You will then make regular payments to repay the loan over a set period of time, typically 15 to 30 years.
