788 Credit Score Mortgage

Options for getting a mortgage loan with 788 Credit score

With an excellent 788 credit score, you could expect the highest quality mortgage programs and the best rate &terms. Conventional mortgages, Jumbo, Super Jumbo, FHA, Va, USDA, and Non-QM loans are at your fingertips, and lenders will swoon over your loan request to compete for your business. Your top-rated credit score can compensate for a high debt-to-income ratio ( DTI), low reserves, or high LTV.

Best rate & terms for your 788 credit score

A high score credit does not guarantee you will get your loan approved. LTV, Income stability, cash reserves, location, Debt to Income ratio, Co-borrowers, property type, property conditions, and ten other factors may help or prevent you from getting the loan you need. Timing is another factor to consider, and unfortunately, big banks are often slower than alternative smaller lenders.

The Rates & Terms depend on the Loan-to-Value, credit, property location, condition, and local real estate market condition. Unlike the FHA loan, which has standard underwriting, private money loan programs differ significantly between lenders. It behooves you to contact and get quotes from at least three lenders before you make a decision. See a list of potential hard money lenders or use the Lendersa form to shop for your loan simultaneously with hundreds of private money lenders.

How mortgage brokers rip you off

A small percentage of mortgage brokers could take advantage of your great credit score by trying to charge you an arm and a leg. Therefore, it would be best if you compared 3-10 lenders' programs before deciding on the best lender, thus avoiding mortgage brokers' rip-offs and loan sharks.
