Fha Home Loan Credit Requirements

Monday, June 7th, 2010

Credit requirements for FHA Home Loan are comparatively less stringent as compared to

The first thing to know is that there is no specific score requirement specified by FHA. The loans are underwritten based on overall credit profile of a borrower. Most lenders use automated systems like Desktop Underwriter by Fannie Mae or Loan Prospector by Freddie Mac ,along with investor specified credit score requirements,to determine eligibility. If the loan is auto approved by DU or LP and score requirements are met then other factors like lates (Not Mortgage Lates) ,collections, charge offs are accepted ,relatively easily ,by underwriters. Generally a prospective Buyer may not like to pay charge offs or ancient collections and this may be possible on an auto approval.

Judgements and Tax Liens

Judgements and Tax Liens are a different ball game since these affect title. A 12  month history from IRS may be accepted by certain lenders and prospective Buyers may not be questioned to clear the entire outstanding tax Lien  in one go. Judgements normally need to be paid.

Credit Scores 640 + or 620 +

Credit requirements required by majority FHA Home Loan Lenders has already been increased to 640 for the past few months now. The earlier score requirements were 620.There are some lenders who will finance borrowers with 620 + fico .There are no additional pricing hits for FICOs being below 640 and above 620.

Credit Scores Below 620

Few  FHA Home Loan lenders will accept such borrowers ,if they have NO NEW lates in the last 12 months. Any new collections or charge offs opened as a result of lates before the last 12 months are considered OK.

No Active TradeLines or No Scores

The same principle applies. Some FHA Home Loan lenders will accept such borrowers if they have NO NEW lates in the last 12 months.Any new collections or chargeoffs opened as a result of lates before the last 12 months are considered OK only if Non Traditional credit can be established .Non Traditional Credit for 12 months can be documented in the form of Rent payments, Telephone/ Cell phone   payments, Electricity, Water, Garbage, Cable, Storage or any other payments made consistently for the last 12 months. Generally a combination of 4 Traditional  or Non traditional lines are required .

Can I get a mortgage (probably FHA) while paying the IRS?

Friday, February 5th, 2010

I had a few years where I failed to file correctly, and thusly owed the IRS quite a bit of money. There was a tax lien filed for part of the years. But, the tax lien is paid off. I still owe for some other years, but have an Installment Agreement that I am paying regularly. 1. Will this affect me being able to secure a mortgage? 2. Do I have to claim it as debt?/Is there anyway for the lender to find out if I don’t tell them?
