We plan is to qualify for a loan in my name alone but I heard recently that they will still use my husband's credit. Now, my husband is a stay at home dad. His credit has a bunch of old collections on it. Not sure of his actual score. Is this true? We have only tried to improve my score.
Hi Champaign,
I guess it will depend upon the state where you live in. In community property states, the lender can ask you to include your spouse in the property and mortgage. But in other states, you can qualify for a loan on your own.
Take care

His credit is not considered at all..... except for judgments and liens.
If in a community property state they pull his crdit to add his debt payments to your loan

Credit score of your husband will not be taken into consideration while offering you a loan. Chances are there that you may get the loan.
I also want to get FHA loan for buying a home, but I do not have any ideas about this lone. From your post, I have got lots of informations about this lone, and this is very helpful for me.
FHA loans are federally sponsored loans. Terms and conditions associated with these loans are also relatively easy. Moreover, the down payment requirement is not also very stringent.
