Question: can you get a home equity loan with a 580 credit score?
Answer: If a borrower has a 580 credit score then the FHA will insure the loan with just a 3.5% down payment. Again, lenders do not have to follow the FHA guidelines. Many mortgage companies require a 620 credit score for FHA loans. However, there are some lenders who can approved home loans with a 580 credit score.
