Should I repair my credit before purchasing a home, or continue renting until I repair my credit?
I want to purchase a home, but I am currently repairing my credit from mistakes I made 4 years ago. Ive consolodated two major issues on my credit, a large credit card bill and money I owe the IRS, smaller issues I have recently paid in full.I have enough money to either put into the bank for a down on a home or pay off my debts within a year or so.I now have a good job and hate throwing away money on rent. What is more important, continue paying rent until my debt is paid off and I can get a better rate on a home loan, or purchase a home now?

If you owe money to the IRS, pay it off.
There are many lenders that do mortgages for people with less than perfect credit. Some will do 100% financing with credit scores of 580+. You should know exactly what your credit score is and you there are many places that you can get a free report.
No bank will finance you with IRS liens, but if they are not liens yet and you are paying them, call a broker in your area and see what you can do. It is always better to own than rent.

Pay off your creditors first and save for a larger down payment. The better your credit score, the lower rate you will receive on a home loan. You'll want to check your score before applying for a home loan.

Talk to a mortgage broker and take a good look at the rates and such that you will get. If they are reasonable, buy now.

If they are too high, pay off some debts and make sure you are creating a new, good credit history (unforutnatley Credit cards are a must in building history, but jsut dont charge much on them.)

The best thing to do at this point is to continue to pay off your debt. I would also write letters to companies that are reporting bad info on your credit.to make sure they haven't received payments from their insurance companies for the debts that you have with them. If that is the case they should remove them from your monthly CRA reports which will then be removed from your credit.

Credit can be rescored in less than 1 week now. I wrote a blog on this last week. Check it out.

Rent is wasted money making someone else rich..Purchase the home now and perhaps you can incorporate into the mortgage all of you outstanding debts including I.R.S., even if you have to purchase a cheaper home than you planned...After owning the home for a few years and all is settled and your beacon score is excellent, sell home and buy the one you want, besides you will probably sell for more than you pruchased and make a few bucks.

it depends on your credit score. I'm in Cali so your credit score means a lot. a bad credit score can mean a higher house note. why not fix up your credit now. or pay for it 2 times later.( a higher house note + fixing up your credit.= money gone. ) ( fixing your credit + buying a house later = more money in the bank )

If your credit is good enough to get a mortgage and you can afford it, buy a house now. Rates are still low. Plus you'll be building equity instead of throwing it away. You can always refinance when you have better credit if you need to.

In the long run, it'll be better to repair your credit. An extra point or two on your mortgage rate could add up to many tens of thousands of extra dollars paid over the life of the loan.

I would recommend paying off the old bills and repairing your creidit first. This will allow you a lower rate and save you money in the end. As a renter you don't have to worry about home repairs, insurance, or taxes. I would definitely wait.

The truth is from the information you have given no one will be able to give you complete sound advice. There are more details that are needed. If you log onto http://justgetaloan.net/ and fill out the complete application that will allow us to get you a loan qualification. Than with that information we can do a thorough and complete rent vs own analysis. That way we can wiegh out the pro's and con's along with long term vs short term benefits for example tax right off from ownership, or possible saving and better programs for improved credit. If you would like log on fill out the complete application that way we can do the analysis. For additional assistance feel free to contact me Jenold Freeman at 866 530 7300 ext 7305 or by email at jfreeman@justgetaloan.net
