One of the biggest myths in homebuying is thinking you need a perfect 800 credit score to buy a home. 💡
The truth?
Many loan programs may allow qualified buyers to purchase with scores much lower than people expect.
Depending on the program, buyers may qualify with:
✔️ FHA loans — sometimes starting around 580+
✔️ Conventional loans — often 620+
✔️ VA & USDA options — flexible depending on the situation
But here’s the important part 👇
Your credit score is only ONE piece of the puzzle.
Lenders also look at:
💰 Income
📉 Debt-to-income ratio
🏦 Savings/assets
📄 Employment history
🏡 Loan program type
The best first step isn’t guessing — it’s having a conversation and building a strategy. 🌵
