DH has bad credit(over 500 in a credit score) and we are looking for a home loan. We currently pay a mortgage payment through a relative who owns the house and we definately can afford the payments. Can you suggest a different company??
Thanks

Yeah you can crappy credit and get a loan from
My DH and I are using Countrywide. Try your bank. If you belong to a credit union, that’s even better.
Suggestion #1
Look for a local mortgage broker or banker. They have access to lenders from all over the country.
Suggestion#2
New Century mortgage or Greenpoint mortgage(look them up on the web)
Talk to a local mortgage broker. They have access to the programs that the “.com”’s have plus tons more. I know for a fact that local mortgage brokers can lend down to a 500 score on the same programs the internet brokers use.
If you’re buying the home you live in ask your loan officer about a “Gift of Equity”. A local loan officer can go over your credit report with you. They’ll offer suggestions to improve your credit. Since they don’t have people from all around the country calling them, they are usually much more accessible and convenient.
Take the time to learn more about the process. Check out my blog to find out what a mortgage broker does and how you can help yourself get a better loan:
