    Quicken Loans is a great company. You may run into the same problems with less than 2 years employment and income level. It's worth a try though. What are your FICO scores?

    I don't not know my credit score yet I do get my score from creditkeeper.com but I don't think it is the real score.

    I want to ask those it hurt you credit score when the lender pulls your credit,or how is work? how many times can the pull your credit with a time frame before it hurt your credit score?
    I did read some reviews about Quickenloans and it did not sount to good.
    Thanks

    Your FICO scores take a hit every time a lender pulls your credit. That said, if you're shopping for a mortgage, make sure every lender you go to pulls your credit around the same time. The credit scoring model won't penalize you for shopping around and it will count all the hard inquiries as one.

    I've heard several good reviews about Quicken, but I've never used them personally. Do you have a local credit union you use? You may want to start out by talking to them as well.

    I would call around to couple different mortgage brokers instead of going directly to your bank. Mortgage brokers have access to multiple loan programs from many different lenders. They are usually more creative with how they can structure your loan. Good Luck! Heather with BoostMyScore.NET
