You need to be meeting with a lending consultant or Realtor and they could help you on the right way. I am 22 and purchased my second home almost a year ago. Nothing is impossible... start by keeping a steady job. For anyone to start to take you serious you need to be with the same company for at least 2 years. Second MAJOOOOOOOR thing: do NOT put anything on credit card or take out a loan, like buy a new car. This will help your credit score. If you are making payments on a new car; get rid of it or pay it off!! A big mistake a lot of people make, including me with my first house is that you hear that it's bad to have a ton of credit cards open in your name so they get rid of all but one. That's not true. As long as you have a zero balance you can have 100 cards in your name and the longer you have had the card- that's a big plus towards your FICA score. There are also "first time home buyers loans" out there... it's so that you don't have to put so much money down in the begining. I don't know if they are different from state to state so check with a Realtor, they can fill you in. The last thing I have to say is YOU GO GIRL!! If someone laughs at you and tells you that you can't have a house then go on to the next person and don't stop until you find the person who is willing to help you. You CAN do this. I am proof.

Graduate, get a job, pay your bills on time and apply for a mortgage when you are ready like the rest of us.

You cannot buy a house as you can probably tell from the previous answers.

Why would you want to anyway?
Have you been told that renting is just throwing money away?
It's not.
Renting is a great way to save money and maintain a flexible lifestyle. As you mentioned, you're a student with no job. Wouldn't you rather be able to take a trip to Europe at the drop of a hat, or move to the other side of the country or start a romance with someone who may be on their way to a different city? Wouldn't you rather be able to shop for jobs anywhere in the US rather than within a 30 minute commute from your house when you graduate? And what if you don't want a tradtional job or tradtional house in 2 years? What if the housing market collapses?

Save your cash, if you're worried that you're not financially stable without a house, go talk to someone with a no money down, interest only McMansion and ask them how financially secure they feel.

why buy - market will crash anyways - rent - save your money in a high-interest account... you are a student, do you know where you will spend your life!

Parents co-sign. That's probably your only hope. Or payment in full if you have it.


armystud_yo
If you don't have income how are you going to pay for this house even if you find a bank dumb enough to give you a loan. your credit isn't your problem your income is. worry about earning money before you buy a house. learn about business and open one. Also learn about real estate and you would answer your own question. https://www.carltonsheets.com

You could try to do a "lease to buy" option on renting. Some landlords will allow you to apply a portion of your rent towards the purchase price of the house they are renting you. It is really good for both parties, since the landlord sets the price (no negotiating really), and you aren't throwing away ALL of your rent money. You will still need to save some $$ during the lease, but it is an option. Good luck!

I would get a job, then rent. Maybe get a checking or savings, that way when u go to buy the house, you could probably get a loan from the bank.
