Question by Its A Secret!: Question About Bad Credit Mortgage?
I have several questions about buying a home with bad credit. Before I do, let me give you some information about me to help you better answer the questions.

I’m hoping to marry my current girlfriend sometime in the future – maybe in a year or so, God willing. We would probably rent an apartment for a year or two after getting married, then would like to buy a home.

The good news is that her credit is excellent. My income is about ,000 a year, and her’s is about ,000 per year, so our combined income would be about ,000, assuming nothing changes between now and then (but hopefully it will change for the better .

The bad news is that my credit is bad – I had a bankruptsy a few years ago, and my credit score is just over 600, which is pretty dismal. I understand that there are ways to improve your credit score (any tips would be appreciated), but I’m just trying to get an idea of what kind of interest rate we might receive on a mortgage based on our current financial picture.

I don’t understand how the bank would determine our interest rate considering her good credit and my bad credit. Based on my credit score, I would think the bank would give me a rate of about 8.5% or higher, if I could even qualify for a loan at all, but based on her good credit, my guess the interest rate would be about 5.5%. My guess is that we could probably afford a home in the 0,000 to 0,000 price range.

I’m very new to all of this, so I understand that my estimates may be off, but any feedback or advice you can give would be appreciated. This would be a few years away, but I’d like to do as much as I can in the next couple of years to improve my credit, and to plan for this so we can make the best possible decision when that times comes to buy a house.

Thanks to all that respond!

Question by CaliKaty: Is taking out a pay day loan my only option?
I need a very fast 00 and I don’t know the best solution.

I live in Los Angeles and work a full time job and have another part time job on the side. However, even with that, money is still very tight. Under normal circumstances, I am able to make ends meet every month, but I rarely have much of anything left over.

However, the last few months have been filled with a string of family financial problems.

My parents are close to foreclosing on their house and the my dad was laid off. Consequently, I have had to help my parents pay their mortgage and bills. It is deeply saddening to see them in that state and has been horribly embarrassing for my parents to have to ask me for money.

All in all, I make about 2100/month, including tips. I pay about 950 in rent and utilities and 75 for students loans. Then there’s insurance, food, and some expensive prescriptions thrown in.

However, because I have had to give my parents a substantial chunk of money each of the last few months (and pay my brothers rent when he couldn’t, last month), i have been left with just barely enough for rent this month. Read the rest of this entry »
