There are several board members that are experienced mortgage brokers who will work with you on or off the board. "fla-tan" comes to mind, I believe he leaves his email on all the time, Ibut I know there are others, I just don't recall their user names off top of my head. if I'm not mistaken, I believe lenders will pull all 3 reports and use the middle score do a search on "FHA loan" and I bet you will find lots of relevant posts GOOD LUCK !!!! I bet you will find assistance and make this a successful journey .

fdjtwins FHA doesn't pull a CR, the mortgage lender pulls it and all three are pulled. If there are any open collections or charge-offs that showup, they must be payed either before or at closing. Other than that, FHA loans are not really score driven. There are limitations that apply to FHA loans though. Hope this helps. fla-tan
