Why are there scores so low? it is HIGHLY unlikely you can do this unless they have a damn good reason for scores below 500. Damn good, and you must be able to document the reasons. Even then it is a long shot.

what ltv? is there a darn good reason his credit is so low?

with a good loe and solid reserves, etc, it might get manny uw at a small shop like first american mortgage trust (brookline, ma - google them). rate will be very high for fha, but very low for that score.

i closed a 492 exactly there once a year or two back. very, very good loe and a monthly savings of 1800 for the customer. make sense deal, lower ltv. 7.5% rate, i think.

i just streamlined the same customer (whose payment history has been perfect since we got the loan) - now she is back down in the 5s
