Can you do the 2021 fico score needed?
Your videos are so helpful, thank you! I started at 580 FICO quite a while back with quite a few collections, paid several off, settled some, started with a secured credit card with a 500 dollar limit, got an unsecured with a cosigner that went from 1,000 to 2,100...just got my first unsecured by myself with a 3,000 limit instant approval. Interest rate is terrible but I won't be carrying a balance. I'm sitting at 631 with that 3,000 card not even on there yet, so we are getting there!!!! All this after making some mistakes with credit when I was younger. Your videos are amazingly helpful. Starting to look at condos and houses now, been in my good paying job three years and counting. Going strong over here!
Dude you get straight to point. Most videos on youtube would be like 15mins long tryna sell something and never get to the point
Thanks! I try not to waste your time until AFTER you get the info you came for 😃😃😃
Keeping track of info like this for my son and his fiancé. Probably a NFCU plan but helping him with solid base for a strong score when it’s time. Thanks!
I give this video a 5star this the best one I seen so far.
I have watched plenty of videos and this video is the best breakdown!!!👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
Great video I learned so much, thanks
Man, thank you! Very helpful.
EXTREMELY valuable information. Thank You!!
From what I heard ~760 to ~780 is where you can ask for application fee wavers (if applicable) and like you said ~720 for the best rates.
I have a 775 CS with 0 Debt.
I was able to remove my tax lien and unwanted collections on my credit and also had my credit increased from 598 to 810 within a short time with the help of Roy Brandon from Credit MasterFix LLC. Someone from work hit me up with them, at first I was skeptical about it but I contacted him because I needed to get a loan, now my family is happy and grateful to Credit MasterFix LLC for helping me . I have recommended him to few of my friends and you can contact him through email (Roy@creditmasterfix.com) f you need your credit fixed too. Cheers.
@@bitcoinforbeginners6932 Thats awesome, Congrats!
Great video..thank you

Thanx bro. Dope video
I like your style of presentation... Thank you for being here online
Thanks, that is very kind!
IMO having a high credit score is stellar to increase one's opportunity approval. The challenging part is if your income isn't huge & have outstanding balances on loans
If I buy another home, I will pay cash. I finally learned to save years ago and I am still surprised how fast it grew. Never felt more secure in my life.
What did you do ? I like to know
share a piece of your secrets please
I dont have half a million in cash to buy a decent condo here in my state :(
There is no secret. I didn't learn until I was about 40 to start saving. I am now 58 and retired, I couldn't believe how fast the savings grew. One hint is to obtain no debt. When I decided to not get in anymore debt, I still had two years left on my car and of course my mortgage. When the car was paid off, I kept it but kept making the car payments to a savings account. I nursed the car along for 8 more years and had enough to purchase a new car cash with money still in my car account. I compartmentalized my money in accounts and if something came up, I borrowed from myself and paid it back like any other debt. Interest free. Money grew. Now I'm not much of an investor as I don't like to lose money now, just my retirement accounts are invested. I was only a mailman for years so I didn't make a ton of money, but saving is the key and not buying what you can't afford.
@@bobbon6987 how tf are you going to buy your next home cash if you are retired now
Helped me good video
Good advice
Good stuff here!
I'm at 807. Heck yeah!!
Wife and I will be applying for a conventional mortgage in August/September. We’re both sitting around 750+ FICO. Good video!
Excellent!
Best wishes bro. Buy 350k to 400k house dont go over .

Get that house my boy!!!!

Very Informative video thank you 😊
If you use your credit alone can you later add the spouse after few mortgage payments an does credit still apply if it's a owner to owner sell
What about I have no lates in 13 months. But prior to that have about 7 30 days late on car. But with 10 monthly payments remaining. And a 2015 charge off with zero balance minimum payment due zero was just charged of at 24k bank sold vehicle and said I have a zero balance remaining but still shows charged off in 2016
Ricky when exactly this will happen, they said the summer time July ?
640 is the magic number
?
A good credit score in a long job history after they look at your credit score they want to know how long you been on your job if you getting a new job every year that's a problem
Every job has a diffrent value to the bank to its
title not how long you've been there they estimate the avg salary of said position and job title
They like someone that's going to always be making money like a trade or high demand skill job
It's okay to be moving from job to job when you have a skill
Do you offer any consultations??
What about with a VA loan
Paid cash for mine. Screw credit. NO, I'm not being uppity, rude, or facetious. I just realized that home buying in the area I lived and grew up in was a bad idea with the ever increasing taxes and ever increasing city and county regulations. I moved out of state and landed a 1000 sq ft home on an acre of land for 25k with $350 a year property taxes. I know moving out your area isn't an option for a lot of people, but please do realize that are ARE great home/land buying opportunities in many places outside of where you live and grew up. AND know that being mortgage free or have a LOW mortgage with low property taxes allows you to work less/for less/stress less on your job.
Sooo just coming up with the cash on hand is better option than to be locked into debt you’re saying...
I wouldn’t say screw credit but I think paying for property taxes and a few other fees sound more pleasant than a mortgage. Besides, I’d rather rent than pay down on a house to never own a home anyway...

It’s hard to move when you share custody of children and their other parent lives far away. Having to meet half way
My credit score is 728 with fico and my mortgage score is 697 with fico and 100 percent payment and 0 derogatory so do u think this is good for a fha mortgage
My current mortgage score is 777 and that’s my middle one. Hopefully it’s good enough for a mortgage and I hardly have any debt
That is very good.
Im taking a poop coming out painfully but smooth at the same time
Take a shot every time he says the word score
760 for how many consecutive months?
US Bank takes a 740 as top tier for lowest interest rate.... I came in at 760, still shopping though. Tough finding value in Florida and I’m itching for a new cc
What if a person is currently in school and their student loans, on their credit reports, are deferred and they are planning to take out a mortgage loan. Does deferred student loans affect mortgage lending decisions?
I can say that it doesn’t.. my wife has 50,000 worth of student loans and we still got approved for a substantial mortgage loan
Can you also do video using VA?! I need some more knowledge
Platinum Motion personal message me! I’m a mortgage loan officer and can help:)

Also for first time home buyers, I seen the credit scores now have to be 680 and up since people in low 600s have been defaulting on their loans..!!
Hope I'll get the loan then
How about VA loans cowboy? Conventional loans are for suckers in this financial environment.
How long does a foreclosure stay on your credit report i had one 6 years ago
I wanted to thank Roy Brandon from Credit Master Fix for all of his hard work and dedication. I wish more companies out there today could learn how to treat customers like Credit Master Fix has treated me and my family. This is a company that is more concerned with their customers than anything else. I have been with [creditmasterfix.com] for 4 weeks and in those 4 weeks they have managed to tremendously help me with my credit, budget my bills, and have also put me in the hands of other business professionals that have taken care of us. I recommend anyone to speak with Credit Master Fix. If more companies today took to their footprints, they'd be better off. These guys are truly amazing.
Usually about 10 years
A nice suitable house, not a fixer upper.
Be over 700 no matter what
With this new Fico 10 & 10 T over 100 million scores will dropped heavy in the summer time beware
Only if your credit score is under 680, then you will get dropped off in garbage truck. If you have 680 and up, you will get 20 points for rewarding with good credit which will put you at 700.!!
Due to my good/excellent score I got a 95% mortgage on a 4 bed 88k house with a 3.5k deposit
Why would someone say this on a random CZcams video ? Lol

@@curtisdance Congrats bro..I just got my pre approval recently as I'm looking for a house as well. What kind of interest rate did you get with your mortgage?

Do VA loans fall under conventional loans?
VA loans are sort of their own category, but more like FHA in terms of approvals.
Well, it's complicated its not just your credit score.

my credit score is straight broke
You’re wrong about bankruptcy. It’s only two years after your bankruptcy was discharged by the courts before you can start looking for a mortgage.
640. No debt. Credit card all zero balance. And I have 6. And 2 retailer cards. At job 24 years. Score 640. Just waiting till I get up to atleast 700
Take on decent sized car loan. Around last year of payments your credit will soar.
Car loan that deep is very favorable on credit availability. Its like having a huge credit card with near zero balance.
You'd be over 700 for sure👍
Henry Sheppard yea just paid off my car. A new loan will hurt me with a mortgage. But thanks for advice
Get rid of those credit cards. That is potential debt and will work against you.
@@THEREALSHOTIME23 Congrats! Keep doing what you're doing. Don't drop any of your cards it will lower your score! You're on track to purchasing your home! Keep up the hard work!
Use the cards and keep a very small balance on it each month. Your score will quickly rise
But why would they use the lowest credit score? That seems a little sketchy.
That’s exactly what it is. Just another way to make it harder to be a home owner.
Because they suck
To make more money
Yeah so that seems weird to me that they of course want the worst score.
Me and my spouse are applying for a loan. She has no income but a decent credit score. I have the income but I am unscorable. When applying together I know they go with the lowest out of our scores. Would they go with the unscorable and automatically deny us?
She has to have some kind of score. Get her a secured card. Me and my husband did what you just said with a car because we needed it and got a 24%apr. Please don't if your not ready we paid like $26k for an $11k car. Bad idea.
What about closed accounts??
The rule of thumb is to keep these accounts open and the older the better
is this US or canada?
This is Patrick
What if I just have rent instead of mortgage for debt/income ratio? Does that depned on on landlord reporting to credit agencies?
Matthew Pepper this will not count towards DTI. in some cases, it can actually help you more than people who do not have a current rent payment. I’m a loan officer. Message me for more info!
Use one credit card only and keep a balance on it at all times and every month pay a lot more than the min amount due each month. Do this for a year and your credit will skyrocket
@MrBadBricks DID YOU HEAR THAT?! SKYROCKET 😂
@bman You're exactly right..your method is what I did. Last year my credit score was around 620 or so mainly because I never really used credit much..always cashed out for everything..so I applied for a modest unsecured visa with a $200 limit, kept a balance and paid on it timely thru their app and a year later, my credit score is 791 and I've already been pre-approved for a $200k conventional loan to get me a house. It does work
I had no credit I knew i would need it. so i applied for a card and got it. I would charge every month make a big payment. But you cant pay it all you have to show you can carry a balance responsibly. That was 2 years ago. I had a round a 620 score also. i just bought a house my credit score was 782.
You’re wrong my guy.
You can have more than one card which will help your score with available credit totals, and also never keep a balance or pay interest. You can still have a positive report and not pay interest.
I’m not saying what you suggest is entirely wrong but good luck getting into the 800s with only one credit card.

What state our you pertaining to???
Good morning
I file for bankruptcy in August of 2016 and charged off in Nov 2016. Right now Im at 590 on my score. And would like to buy a house. Do I still wait to try?
Your bankruptcy was almost 4 years ago. For you to have a 590, you must be back in debt
@@mantiscity that or they didn't do anything to build credit
@@mantiscity woah you are no real Financial advisor at least post a helpful comment
Id recommend having a co-signer with at least a 720 credit score or save up for a 3 percent Down payment loan. With lending tree or a FHO lender. Worst case is getting a foreclose home and testing the market
@Phillip Aubin Just got mine for that reason.
i check my own 3 fico scores.i paid 29.99 $..less than 4 min.after that my transunion drop 56 pts...WHY ?
Well you checked your credit score without using like credit karma.
@@LaCatHTF I check my score using credit karma all the time. I applied for a mortgage loan, they told me my credit score was 69 points different. I was extremely surprised and hurt. I didn’t know it was a huge difference

@@joeyfemia5215 .is it a good time to buy ahouse now in the pandamic?
And is child support counted as an income to buy a house ?
dayana444333 Believe it or not, yes. As long as you are still working, rates are at historic lows, so it’s very affordable to purchase a home! Some are worried about house values declining, but they increased during every recession besides 2008, and that’s because it was caused by the housing and mortgage bubble

Mine was about a 640 Mid and I closed the 3rd week of May at a 3.75% rate with 3.5% down. But you definitely need to have no delinquent accounts & no 30 day late payments.
@@jasoncrandall73 how long is your credit history if you dont mind me asking?
I had to file for bankruptcy in late 2010 due to the impact of the 2008 recession. Income dropped by over 1/3. So since the bankruptcy discharge in March 2012, I moved twice, went thru some jobs in between finding that income consistency I was able to close on a house this past May.
I worked with FairWay Now here in Florida & they helped me to qualify for a mortgage that fit my income/ratios.
Thru this process I have learned some things that the industry is looking for to give a person a mortgage-
Keep a positive bank checking account balance.
Keep all bils under 30 days late.
No negative marks on your credit report.
Mid Credit Score all depends on the current market risks (earlier in the year with the Covid 19 mid scores went up).
Ratios are determined by income & what type of loan you are getting (debt ratios are a lower % with USDA).
dont forget i would have to have white skin

You don't need a credit score to get a house. It's called underwriting.
It's a lot more difficult without a credit score, though.
You don't need a credit score to buy a house. It can be done with a nice savings and no debt easily
You're trippin
@@Torquemeister no I'm right
@@Torquemeister its called manual underwriting
Do you know what manual underwriting is ? If you have a bad credit score/ history with lenders, you are NOT getting a loan.
420 or higher for FHA loan

Reffa / you should join the weird eyebrow association
You don’t “need” a credit score.....look into manual underwriting.
Do you know what manual underwriting is ? Instead of an algorithm making a decision, people evaluate your financial record. If you have a bad credit score/bad history with lenders, you are still not going to get a loan
Olivier Plante I do know what it is. I’m referring to someone who does not have a credit score and is looking to purchase a home. If you don’t have a credit history then manual underwriting is a route you can go.

I was trying for 14.
