At Get That Deed, our team is passionate about helping first-time home buyers make one of the most important investments in their lives. We believe that everyone deserves a place to call home, and we’re committed to guiding families through the home-buying process, no matter what their credit score may be.

Hidden
What is considered to be “bad” credit in the home buying process?
Many traditional lenders consider anything below 620 as “bad” credit, but it’s important to recognize that a low credit score doesn’t necessarily disqualify you from investing in a home. There are alternative routes to home ownership, including certain loan programs that look for other signs of financial security, such as a strong rental history or proof of consistent income.
Will I need to make a larger down payment on a house?
This can depend on what type of loan you choose. For example, some lenders may require you to make a 10% down payment if you have bad credit, whereas FHA loan programs can require as little as 3.5%. We encourage you to work with our knowledgeable team to identify the optimal solution for you and your family’s situation.
How can I improve my chances of getting approved for a home loan?
We strongly recommend gathering all documentation that proves that you have a steady source of income, have made efforts to pay off debts, and have a strong rental history. If you can reduce your debt, this can help show lenders that you’re trustworthy and capable of paying off a home loan. Finally, following our proven first-time home buyer program can give you the tools and knowledge you need to make this important investment. Please reach out to us today to schedule your consultation.
