worth it (or would we be able) to put lump sum down ($80=90,000)and refinance?
Hi KingPoodleLuvr,

With such a low credit score, lenders won't be ready to refinance the loan. So, before you put down such a lump-sum amount, clarify it with the lender whether or not he will be ready to refinance your loan with low credit scores.

Thanks

Hi KingPoodleLuvr!

Welcome to forums!

I agree with James that lenders won't be ready to refinance the loan if you have a bad credit. I will suggest you to improve your credit score and then apply for a loan. You can check out the given page in order to know some steps to improve your score: http://www.mortgagefit.com/credit-rating/credit-repair.html .

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
