Can I get a conventional mortgage with 5% down and low credit score

Good Evening. First, your consumer credit score is not the same model used for mortgage credit scoring files. Second, if the condo is not FHA Approved, it is likely that it is not Fannie or Freddie Approved either. Third, you would likely need to increase your down payment and look for a viable condo association to consider for any possible condos for sale. There is a condo questionnaire that would need to be completed which would detail the number of units in the complex, the number rented, the number owner occupied, as well as if any one one person owns more than 10% of the total number of units. This information along with the association's financials would be needed for full review. Working on your file with a Knowledgeable and Trusted Mortgage Professional would be my top recommendation seeing you do have some things to work on and the right person would be able to guide you through the process to accomplish your goals in a very timely fashion. I'd be happy to help you if you'd like. Thank you and do enjoy the evening!

Low credit score, condo, loan amount over $417K, are all against you... Income and Debt to Income ratio, all in your favor.. You're better off trying to improve your credit score.. The quickest way is to pay down your revolving debt.. if you get it below 30% of your allowable credit, (ideally under 25%), you should see a substantial increase in your score.. if you get your score to 680 it will open up a bunch more options, but in any situation, you will still need more than 5% down.. a minimum of 10%...

There are lenders that will do a Jumbo loan (which is a loan over $417k) up to 90%. They are out there, you just have to look around. The FHA loan will depend on what county the property is in. For example, Atlantic county FHA loan limit is $453,750 but Hudson county is $729,750.

I do not think you will be able to get because of your score too low, being a condo with 95% ltv on a loan amount over $417,000

The conventional loans are credit score driven in Terms of the rate you will qualify for. FHA is not. You will qualify for a much lower rate thru FHA.

Respectfully... Stop looking at houses and work on repairing your credit. Most people can improve their scores in a few months with good advice and a little work. Sit down with a local NON-Bank lender. Let them review your situation, give you some guidance... and you should be in the lender good graces in short order allowing you to successfully purchase a home in today's market!
