What is the lowest fico you can have going FHA?

Also what is the highest DTI you can go?

I have a couple of files with 530-569 ficos, with DTI's up around 50-62%... is there a bank that would do these?????????

TB&W does not have any Minimum FICO, BUT, their credit report should not have more than 1 or 2 Lates within the last 2 years....which normally knocks-out the Low FICO's....
First Guaranty Financial was doing LOW FICOS....

if it qualifies under the secure then there still is no minimum,whci i know IMB is still taking. also, if you can get a EA-3 then Flagstr is still taking these and you would not need a minimum. i actually just got an approval from flagstar with a 540 fico and 2x30 rate was 7.75 <.5>. good luck.

I take my low score borrowers through First Guaranty! I don't know about those high DTI's though. On an approve/eligible you'd probably be fine with a higher than normal dti.

The highest dti I've ever gotten through on a manual was 48 and I was surprised.

Security Atlantic is doing these. I just closed a 548 mid last night w/ them. Go to fhaok.com and fill out the preflight form and send it in w/ credit report and 1003. You'll get an answer in 24 hours. You may want to do their "FHA Scorecard" as well to see what kind of hits you're going to take to rate.
