You indicate that your purchasing your first home and your credit isi not so great. While most of the loan programs you would have qualified for over the past few years are gone, you are the perfect candidate for an FHA loan. Call your bank and ask them about FHA loans. Check also with at least one other large lenders, a couple brokers, and, if you are a member, a credit union. FHA is going to care less about your past credit and more about your current situation.
Good luck.
Additional: Someone below said go to a Real Estate Agent for a loan. No. No. No. No. Go to a bank/credit union/mortgage lender/mortgage broker. Do not go to a Real Estate Agent. While it is legal in a very few states, including CA, for a RE Agent to sell loans, most states recognize that this is not a good thing and have outlawed it!! Keep the person who sells you RE and the person who facilitates your mortgage separate and you're much less likely to get taken advantage of!! |

Go with the person you trust and feel comfortable and confident asking questions. Try to get into a 30 year conventional loan. If possibly stay away from interest only loans and avoid paying too much in origination and junk fees. |

Hello,
I recommend finding a mortgage company or professional that you can trust. Ask your friends, family and coworkers for someone they’ve worked with or trusted to handle their mortgage needs.
Also, check online. There are several online lenders that you can search for that are capable of providing you with the help you need.
I hope this answers your question. |

CJ is on the money - check with your local bank about an FHA loan, then check with a couple of mortgage brokers or bankers in your area. The brokers/bankers will have a few more programs to choose from than your local bank. Once you have quotes from all, pick one!
No credit is fine - bad credit is what you don't want. Most programs these days are ok with limited credit histories - it sounds like you'll be fine. |

You should talk to a real estate agent. They offer better rates than the bank because they're trying to sell you a house and they want to make sure that you can actually afford to make the money payments. |

Fannie mae has some good programs out for first time homebuyers as does freddie mac.
Both will get you good solid 30 year fixed rates in teh low 7% range.
FHA is similar but will only lend 97% instead of 100%.
I'd be more than happy to get you pre-approved.
