Can I Get A Loan With Bad or No Credit?

July 4th, 2012


In today's New World, it has become more difficult to get approved for a loan and you may have probably experienced that yourself as your loan application has been denied due to bad credit or perhaps the lack of traditional credit in your financial history.

Even though it is true that 99 percent of the lenders will not lend you any money with a FICO score below 620, I have good news for you. There is one, and only one, special conventional loan program that will grant you a 30-year loan, Zero Downpayment, with a 3.375% fixed interest rate (today), with no prepayment penalties, NO closing costs and ZERO dowpayment, regardless of your FICO score.

This is called character lending as they look at your financial discipline for the last 2 years and how you managed your money. Now, if you have been on time only for the last 22 months, they will still accept you into the program with some conditions.

This program will allow you to buy a house anywhere within a 100 miles radius from Houston with a maximum purchase price of $200,160, and there are no income limitations.

The general guidelines for the program are:

* Social Security Number or ITIN number
* No applicant or household member can own another home at the time of closing
* On time payments for all accounts during the most recent 12 months including utilities or explanations for any late payments
* No overdraft changes in the most recent 90 days
* Debt to Income ratio 40% or below
* All charge offs and collections that occured in or have had activity on the past 24 months have a zero balance or an approved payment plan with on-time payments for at least six months
* All liens, judgements and defaulted federal debts (child support, back taxes, student loans) must be resolved.
* Provide past two years of rental history and verify most recent 12 months rent payments or have residence letter covering 12 months.
