A lower credit score doesn't automatically mean homeownership is off the table. 🏡

Mortgage requirements vary by lender and loan program, and there may be ways to strengthen an application even when credit isn't where you'd like it to be.

💰 Build your savings – A larger down payment can reduce the amount you need to borrow and may strengthen your overall financial profile, depending on the loan program.

📈 Work on your credit – Paying bills on time, reducing revolving debt, and avoiding unnecessary new credit can help improve your financial position over time.

🏦 Explore your loan options – Some programs may have more flexible credit requirements than others, including certain government-backed options.

🤝 Consider additional support – Depending on the lender and program, a qualified co-borrower may help strengthen an application.

The most important step is understanding where your finances stand and what options are actually available before assuming you can't qualify.
