Craig,

A score of 550 can do with enough down payment.

Sufficient downpayment can enable you to get a conforming loan with a low score. Otherwise you can think of it with a score above 660.

A score in that range can help you qualify easily but there are other variables to be met too.

Craig, a 620 middle of 3 scores (TransUnion, Equifax & Experian) is a basic 'minimum' for conforming. However, most conforming loans are underwriten via Automated Underwriting through Fannie Mae and/or Freddie Mac where other factors compute into the overall finding. It is quite possible that a score less than 620 will go conforming if the Loan-To-Value (LTV) is low or there are substantial reserves, etc., etc. Contact a recommended lender in your area to explore all your options toward advantageous financing. Best of luck!
