Or a way for me to buy a home with reallly bad credit. I have a home I want that is only 39K and I have 7K to put down on it but am not getting any takers. I have been paying 650 a month in rent and the mortgage would only be 250 so that would free up a lot of money for me but have not been able to get anyone to consider it.

I don't know how bad your credit is, but try first horizon...

Where are you getting $250 from? A $32K loan for 30 years at 6% would be $378/mth and that doesn't include taxes and insurance.

My mortgage calculator must be off. I ran 32k at 7% for 30 years and got $212.90

Just FYI though, you will actually not be that much lower than 650 after taxes and insurance... I would guess 200 extra for taxes, insurance and PMI...

Hello k:

Ask the seller to finance you or sell it to you on a contract.

Part of the trouble is, if you have listened to any news lately, many of the high risk lenders in the housing market have gone or are going broke because of foreclosures. Many have filed bankrutpcy thierself. And others are trying to get our tax dollars to keep them in business.

So there are not as many higher risk lenders today as there was a year ago, so it is going to be harder, but if you can prove your trustworthiness, there will still be some lenders

6.5% for 30years is 202.24. 250.00 is feasible depending on property taxes. Delaware is very low. But it's a moot point. You need to fix your credit. If your fiancé has been out of BK for 5 years he should have improved his scores by now.

With the BK on the credit report and no re-established good credit you are going to have a very hard time.
