Thats correct 620 is required if you goign to do a FHA loan

But if you are goign to do a conventional loan, then you are lookign at atleast 720 to qualify for the loan

The minimum credit score requirement differs from lender to lender. I can lend down to a 550 credit score through my portfolio FHA product. Most require 600-620.
