Where can I get a home loan with terrible credit?
I am in Georgia and I am looking to buy my first home. I have really bad credit, and no money to put down. Is there any place out there that can help me?

As mentioned above the lending guidelines have really tightened up recently and these types of loans are becoming extremely hard to find. Your best bet is probably going to be to contact a few FHA lenders because they can sometimes approve loans for 0-3% down that conventional lenders can not. Good luck.

There probably are lenders who can help you out, but I'll be honest with you, there's a good chance the only people that benefit from this will be the loan officer who sold you the mortgage and the real estate agent who sold you the house, because they'll make commissions. Your credit score is bad because you don't pay your bills on time and/or overextend yourself financially. You don't have any money to put down, which means you will have to finance 100% of the cost of the home, plus all the costs of financing. I guarantee, if you go through with this, your interest rate will be above 10%, the lender will charge you at least four "discount points" to "buy down the rate", each point equals 1% of the loan which goes back into the total loan amount (higher payments), you will finance all closing costs, essentially taking a loan out for MORE than the cost of the home. That is putting yourself on the fast-track to foreclosure, it doesn't make sense! I don't want to sound harsh here, but I don't think buying a home right now is a good idea for you. Start paying your bills on time to get your credit up, open a savings account and reconsider once your credit score is over 660 and you can put 10-20% down. Waiting a few years to buy the first home sure beats getting foreclosed on in a few years, wouldn't you agree? I work for a sub-prime lender, and I could probably make money by giving you my info, but I'm just shooting you straight. Wait a few years when your financial situation is better.

You don't want to do this. If you do find a loan shark to get you into a home loan, the terms will be cost prohibitive, and most likely make your situation worse than it already is.

Sorry, I know this isn't what you want to hear, but you need to improve your credit before you dive into home ownership.

There are hundreds if not thousands of websites on the internet enumerating the ways to apply and receive home loan when you are plagued with bad credit issues. These sites help consumers with bad credit scores to increase the viability of their existing credit scores and set up loans regardless of their credit history.Companies that specialize in bad credit home loans; usually offer a wide range of options for consumers with bad credit<!--These options include Bad Credit Home Loans, Home Equity and Line of Credit (HELOC) Loans and different options for Mortgage Refinancing, making it possible for those with bad credit to realize the dream of owning their own home.You can find more information on Home Loans here,

http://badcredits.awardspace.com/homeloans.htm

They also offer a debt consolidation offer which helps the home owner organize a comprehensive program for controlling their spending. Many consumers with bad credit are grateful for the opportunity to receive a second chance, sort to speak-->Bad credit hasn't stopped them from purchasing a home. There are several programs available for people with bad credit that helps to restore their credit status and to live debt free lives.

If you have really bad credit and no money, you will not get a loan. Here is where you can find the info you need to help get your credit restored:

http://www.bankruptcyloans.info
http://www.bankruptcymortgagebook.com

They are geared toward people that have had bankruptcies, but bad credit is bad credit and the things you need to do are very similar.

Probably not, lenders have tightened their standards which has tightened the housing market more than it already was. If you had either decent credit OR a sizeable down payment you might be OK. Check out the NACA website, I think it is .com, but it could be . org. They will help you get ready to buy but it does take work.
