Credit Tips

  1. Make sure your credit is in good shape
    • Excellent Credit: 750+
    • Good Credit: 700-749
    • Fair Credit: 650-699
    • Poor Credit:600-649
  2. Try to keep your revolving balance of credit card debt under 30% of available credit limit
    • For example: If you have 3 credit cards with a combined limit of $25,000, try to keep the COMBINED revolving balance of these cards under $7,500 for most positive credit effect.
  3. Have at least 3 open credit accounts.

Rental History

  1. Make sure you document and can verify the past 12 months of rental payments. Most lenders will want to see this when you apply for a loan.

Employment Verification

  1. Have past 2 years of W2/Tax returns available
  2. Have most recent pay stubs covering up to current date
  3. Be able to explain any gaps in employment over past 2 years (if applicable)

Additional Tips

  • Avoid large deposits or withdrawals from your bank account
  • Determine the amount of money you will be able to use as a down payment on your home purchase.
    • Lowest amount you will be able to put down is 3.5% of home’s purchase price using an FHA Loan
    • Gift funds are allowed to be used as a down payment ( certain restrictions apply)
  • Obtain a Pre-Approval letter from a licensed Mortgage Loan Officer. Call Adam at 702-596-5639
