My Grandparents passed away a year ago. My brother lived with them and wants to buy there house. He dosent have much of a credit history. I think his score is around 580-600. Is there any progams out there or anything he can do to buy the property?

Hi rogh,

It will be difficult for him to get a mortgage with such low credit scores. In order to qualify for a FHA loan, he should have a credit score of at least 620. If he wishes to go for a conventional loan, then he should have a credit score of around 700-720.

Thanks

>>or anything he can do to buy the property?

Yes, he can use a co-signer.
