Question: what credit score is needed to buy a house with zero down?
Answer: All you need is a credit score of 580 to get an FHA loan combined with a lower down payment. However, you'll have to make up for it with a larger down payment if your credit score is lower than 580. You may be able to get a loan with a credit score as low as 500 points if you can bring a 10% down payment to closing.
