minimum credit score is 500. New FHA policy requires a minimum credit
of 500 to buy a home or refinance. In the old days FHA did not require
any credit score. These changes went in to effect in 2010.
To buy a home you will need a minimum credit score of 500.
Borrowers
with credit score above 580 require a 3.5% down payment. The funds can
be a gift from a family member and a 6% seller's concession is allowed.
If you have credit scores below 580 new FHA changes require a
10% down payment. Funds can be the borrower's own funds or a gift from a
family member. FHA allows up to a six percent seller concession for

To refinance your mortgage you need a minimum credit score of 500.
Borrowers with a credit score above 580 can refinance up to a 97.5% loan-to-value on a rate and term refinance. And up to 85% cash out refinance with a credit score above 580.
If you have credit score below 580 new FHA
changes require a maximum loan-to-value of 90% for a rate and term
refinance. And up to 75% cash out refinance with credit score below 580.
Most lenders require a minimum credit score of 640. We don't.
Whether
you're planing to buy your first home, refinance, lower your monthly
payments, buy a second home, consolidate debt or get pre-approved for a
mortgage. A perfect credit score is not needed for an FHA loan approval.
In fact, even if you have had credit problems, such as a bankruptcy, it's easier for you to qualify for an FHA loan than a for a conventional loan. Credit scores down to 500 are accepted if there are compensating factors that offset the credit risk.
