Do you have bad credit or poor credit and want to buy a home?

Buying a house has become synonymous with "the American dream."

However, far too many prospective buyers have found that owning a home has many prerequisites. In addition to having enough money for a downpayment, one hurdle has proven problematic for many to overcome: learning how to buy a house with bad credit Arizona. Fortunately, a low credit score won't prevent a borrower from buying a home. While options may be more limited, buying a house with bad credit is possible if you know where to look and the appropriate steps.

What Do Mortgage Lenders Consider A Bad Credit Score?

Contrary to what many believe, today's mortgage lenders do not establish a good or bad credit score benchmark. Moreover, most mortgage lenders neglect to require a minimum credit score in return for their services. Instead, the quality of a credit score is entirely dependent on the cumulative data provided by three main credit bureaus: TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian.
Borrowers' credit reports for a Bad Credit Mortgage in Arizona largely depend on the information generated by these three credit bureaus. However, instead of relying on three independent reporting agencies for their knowledge, mortgage lenders will generally look to the cumulative FICO scores to determine how creditworthy a borrower is. A FICO Score is a three-digit number based on the information in the previously mentioned credit reports and indicates how likely a borrower is to repay their loan.
There are five primary credit score categories prospective homebuyers may fall under (according to FICO):
  1. Poor: Less than 580
  2. Fair: 580 – 669
  3. Good: 670 – 739
  4. Very Good: 740 – 799
  5. Exceptional: 800 or more
 
According to the latest FICO scores, anything less than 670 is bad—or subprime. It should be noted, however, that mortgage lenders will consider more than a borrower's FICO Score. In particular, lenders will also consider the following:
  1. The borrower's down payment
  2. The amount of debt the borrower has
  3. How much income does the borrower make
  4. Whether or not the borrower has any debts in collections
 

Anyone interested in learning how to buy a house with Mortgage Loans for bad credit must first look into what today's lenders view as acceptable; only then will borrowers be able to take the next step..
