am trying to purchase a property that is in foreclosure. I currently live in the property as a tenant. I have run into a issue where lenders think, I am bailing out the owner. Which I am not, I like where I live and would like to continue living there. Any help would be of great help. My credit isn't that great. My mid is 597, but i carry almost no debt, I have a stable job, and made pretty good money last year 90+.

I think it is possible to find a lender who will be flexible regarding your tenant situation. However, your credit score may be a deal breaker. What percentage will you put down on the property?

Hi

If you're looking to put down as little as 3.5%, you must look for an FHA-insured loan. But according to the credit requirements for the FHA loans, your credit score has to be 620 points at least. What is your credit score?
