    You can get a mortgage today with bad credit. You pay 9% interest for 30 years. You can close the sale in 2 weeks. /

    Even if your credit is not the best, you should have no problem getting a mortgage. The bank may charge you a higher rate, but you should get it. When buying a house, the bank knows they can always repossess. Good luck to you

    Yes, you can get a mortgage but at a higher interest rate and the banks will probably require a substantial downpayment depending on how bad your credit is. Try these websites, they provide downpayment assistance. www.ameridream.org www.getdownpayment.com

    Good Luck

    You could buy one pretty soon if you consider Vendor Financed homes or Rent To Own homes as the owner would assess you and not a bank..
