I don’t know why I am surprised. I shouldn’t be. Just when it looks like things are settling down out there in the rumor world a new one catches my ears (and eyes.)
This time a prospective buyer in the Metro Detroit area was told that the new FHA guidelines include a credit score minimum of 700.
WRONG. Oh so wrong.
FHA has tightened up their credit score guideline, yes, but as of Friday (March 2009) it is at 620.
620.
Please don’t let misinformation frighten you from applying for an FHA mortgage. or any other type of mortgage. If you want a recommendation to a local mortgage expert please give me a call or send me an email. I’ll be happy to send you contact information for those in our area (Metro Detroit) that are knowledgeable, keep up to date on mortgage program changes, and will discuss your options for you in a non-pressured setting. No obligations - just honest advice.
