Hi CINDY!

Welcome to forums!

I agree with executivemortgageadvisor. You may be able to get a FHA loan though you had a medical judgment on your credit report. However, the FHA lender will check your credit score and income before approving a loan.

Feel free to ask if you have further queries.

Is it true that your minimum credit score have to be 620 for FHA, or is it up to the lender? I'm 23 yrs old and have been having problems with med coll since I was 18. I now have 3 account in good standing and never paid late, but I have 9 negitive med coll account which 7 of them have been paid in full and I'm working on the last 2. I'm having such a hard time finding a home loan because of crapy insurace. Any suggestions?

Hi norwoodapril,

Yes, the minimum credit score requirement for a FHA loan is 620. Lenders will not give you a loan if your credit score is lower than that. I would suggest you to improve your credit and then look out for a loan. Moreover if you pay off the remaining negative account, then it would help you in improving your credit score.
