I am looking to purchase a bank owned home and I live in California. I have a credit score of 650 and I make about 40,000 a yr. I am looking to purchase a home but I am not sure what kind of loan is available to me as a first time home buyer. I have heard about a lot of loans available but I’m not sure which ones are the most suitable for me. I am also not sure which lender or mortgage company to go with? Any ideas would help!
My boyfriend and I are buying a home together but he can not be on the mortgage because of his poor credit. I do not qualify for the 00 first time home buyer tax credit but my boyfriend does. Does he have to be on the mortgage in order to qualify for the tax credit or can I put him on the deed and will that qualify him for the tax credit?
The IRS has confirmed that if he is on the deed, lives in the house and can prove, that he has contributed towards the payment of the house, he does qualify for the credit. I am very comfortable having him on the deed but not on mortgage. Without getting into detail, his credit issues are understandable. I am awaiting to hear if the bank has any issues with him being on the deed. I will select the best answer then.
My grandmother lives in a Co-op in New York and I help her pay the maintenance, I used to live with her for several years until 2 years ago. Both of our names are on the co-op contract as share holder as well as on the Mortgage Interest Statement, Form 1098. I never took a mortgage or actually purchased any home. My question is, am I qualified for the 8000$ first time home buyer tax credit in case I buy an apartment in 2009?
I’m trying to buy a home in sullivan county new york. I feel like I am being given the run around. Everytime I find a house something changes, I looked at a house for 150k mortgage was supposed to be around 1300 a month, I decided that was a little high so I came down to 130k home mortgage still going to be 1200 a month, dropped down to 99k mortgage is going to be 1100 a month, closing costs are going to run 10k?
The bank offered me a 6% seller concession but say I am still going to need 6 to 7 thousand dollars? The real estate agent told me to look into grants for low income or first time home buyer. We are a family of 4 (2 adults 2 kids) and income is about 37k, I however plan to go back to work once we move, right now we live in income based housing and it doesn’t pay for me to work, just more to pay to them. I am really at a loss here and need to know what’s going on, none of this makes sense to me and with things always changing, my interest rate has gone from 6 to 6.75%.

I am a first-time home buyer, and have begun the process by looking at properties, doing tons of research, talking to loan officers and mortgage brokers, and looking at FHA, various state grant programs, and specialized grants.
