Hi, please reach out to me @ 203-904-4242. I should be able to assist you.

With a 640 score you should be able to obtain financing without using a hard money lender.

640 should not be an issue for a conventional mortgage with low DTI. In some cases FHA will be better, you should look at both as options. Not need to go to a hard money lender at all!

- the only exception would be if you have issues with documenting your income (self employeed) or a 2 year history of employment. Sounds like your credit union is not very familiar with what other lenders offer.

Ya.. you should ditch the CU.. most lending programs require a minimum of 620 or above, but 660 is ideal.. 640 is definitely within the acceptable range for most lenders.. (except your's i guess).. The best advice I can give you is to contact a LOCAL mortgage broker and apply with them. Once they see your complete loan profile, they will be better equipped to advise you properly. Also, by applying with your LOCAL Broker, you have an advantage because he's familiar with local customs and works with many lenders with each one offering a different type of lending program. This is unlike the local bank which typically only has a few lending programs. The more lenders, the more lending options, and the more likely your scenario will be accepted.. Plus, the broker is experienced in seeking out the best loan terms for your particular scenario, and he has lower overhead which typically results in lower rates and fees than most of the larger lenders..

It's just their "overlays." You can get a mortgage with a 640 score. Obviously, there is more than just the credit score involved, so interview a few lenders and discuss the scenario with them. Find one that you feel comfortable with. Do Not allow your credit to be run again until you have found the right lender, because 640 can be a common cutoff point for scores. It's not like you cannot get a loan with a lower score, but there is no reason for you to pay a higher rate. The inquiries hurt your score.
