Hi btracybee,

He can definitely use the home as a collateral and get a mortgage. But the fact that he has a not-so-good credit and has recently been laid off, will not work in his favor when he applies for a loan. How badis is credit? is it below 600 points?

Thanks.

Jerry

Welcoem to the forum

As Jerry states, since he lost his job and also do nto have a good credit score, it may be difficult to get the loan. The bank would like to know, how is he plannign to make payments

Also old is this person. Is he close to retirement by any chance?

If yes, he cna always look at the option of reverse mortgage

Good luck and feel free to ask

Reverse mortgage is a nice option as realgeni told but it is available for only senior citizens and as the OP has said he does have two small children it can be deferred from that he is not too old where he can apply for reverse mortgage.

If person is taking a loan as against property in order to start a small business then bank will not have any reason to deny the loan because the repayment of the loan can be justified by business purpose.

if loan is taken other than business purpose then it will be really difficult to convince bank officials that HE WILL REPAY THE LOAN.

keep in touch......
