Home buying with bad credit?
My husband and I are starting to
look at buying a home.
However, our credit is very bad. It is improving,
what with paying off the Visas (less than 10k to go!)
the cars (one paid for!) and getting a start on the student loans.
Is there any way to get a mortgage with
absolutely lousy credit? Short of
going to Shylock's Usurer and Meat market?
-Yes, there is, although you shouldn't expect a bottom-dollar interest rate
if you have a bad credit history. Read up on land contracts. I'm holding two
of them at the moment so I speak from experience (as a seller, that is). I
won't try to go in
