How much will I qualify for?

Victoria Quintero answered:
You may want to call a mortgage company for specifics on this. Just looking at the information you provided, it appears you would definitely qualify for a loan. Josette Sullivan, a manager at Cherry Creek Mortgage in Denver works with a lot of renters who are first time buyers and does a fantastic job of getting clients into homes using FHA loans (only requires 3.5% down payment) and she helps buyers qualify for down payment assistance whenever possible. You want to call several loan officers on the same day to provide you with their rates (rates change daily, so call on the same day to do a good comparison) and also ask if they are FHA, VA, Conventional approved. I know Cherry Creek is approved for all of these and they can also shop with different banks to get you the best interest rates. They are also familiar with the 'Teacher Next Door' buyer incentive.

Best of luck with buying a home! If you do not qualify for the $8000 first time buyer credit, you'll probably qualify for the $6500 repeat buyer credit if you have a home under contract by end of April. Ask the loan officer about this. Hope all goes well! - Fri Dec 11 2009, 16:29
