Save for a Larger Down Payment

One way to improve your chances of getting approved for a mortgage loan with a low credit score is to save for a larger down payment. Our team of experienced professionals can help you determine the ideal down payment size and explore other financing options that can work for your unique situation.

Get a Co-Borrower

Another way to improve your chances of getting approved for a mortgage loan is to get a co-signer. A co-signer is someone who agrees to take responsibility for the loan if you fail to make payments. Our team can help you explore this option and find a co-signer with a good credit report who can offset your low credit score.

Shop Around for Lenders

Not all lenders have the same credit score requirements for mortgage loans. Our team can help you shop around for lenders and compare their credit score requirements to find one that is willing to work with you even if you have a low credit score.

Improve Your Credit Score

Improving your credit score is the best way to increase your chances of getting approved for a mortgage loan. Our team can help you identify areas where you can improve your credit score, such as paying bills on time, paying down debt, and disputing errors on your credit report.
