For some reason, nobody has shared the fact that there are either household income restrictions or property location requirements.

You must have houshold annual pre-tax income of no greater than 100% of the area median income.

OR

Be financing a property located in a designated LOW or MODERATE income census tract.

Hi Cindy,

Welcome to our forums.

There's no need to worry if you have a low score. Nowadays there are several loan programs offered to people having no or low credit scores.

You can try out with our community lenders. The lenders offer loan programs of varied choices to people having different scores and income. If you are interested, send in your request for free mortgage quotes. We shall forward it to our community lenders and then shall contact you if they are able to match their profiles with your loan requirements.

Good luck Smile
