Buying a House with Bad Credit
(presented by www.refinance-refinance.net - mortgage lenders)



By Carrie Reeder

Buying a house with bad credit isn’t as hard as most people think it is. In fact, it’s possible to get 100% financing. You simply need to get the lender to concentrate on other things besides your bad credit. Read on to learn more.

Credit history is important, but it isn’t everything. When buying a house with bad credit, all you need to do is show that you have other positive attributes as a borrower.

Income Verification

Bad credit can happen, especially if you have had financial difficulties in the past. The important thing is that you make enough money now to pay your bills, in particular, a mortgage loan payment. If a lender is able to verify your income, and see that you make a reasonable amount of money, buying a house with bad credit is possible.

Down Payment

Having a down payment makes the process of buying a house with bad credit much easier. Most lenders will be able to work around any credit issues you have if you can put anywhere from 3-10% down on your loan. Though coming up with a down payment can seem difficult, there are several options that are available to you. Consider borrowing from friends or family. If that’s not a possibility, you can try to get a grant or a personal loan.

Private Mortgage Insurance

If you don’t have a down payment, you can work around it by paying for private mortgage insurance (PMI). PMI protects the lender from default and makes buying a house with bad credit and no down payment possible for many borrowers. The cost of PMI varies depending upon the amount of your loan. In some cases, it costs as little as $20 per month, in other cases it will be more. Either way, you should be able to drop the PMI after a few years.
