Credit Score Mortgage

Credit score mortgage - The lowest credit score to buy a home or refinance is 500. New requirements for both FHA and VA require a minimum FICO score of 500.

  • VA requires a minimum score of 500

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may require a minimum score of 620 but it becomes cost prohibitive for borrowers with scores below 660 for higher loan-to-value loans. Borrowers with higher scores are more likely to qualify for a conforming loan with a higher loan-to-value.

If you have score below 580 new FHA changes require a maximum loan-to-value of 90% for a rate and term refinance. And up to 75% cash out refinance with FICO score below 580.
