Hey, my credit score is around 530 and my husbands is around 630. I have charge offs from 2005 which will be on my credit report until 2012. We both have good jobs and bring home around 7000 together each month. We also have around 30,000 saved up for a down payment. Since our income is decent, and we have a down payment (more than 10%) is it likely we will be able to find a home loan for a new home?

Here's the trick...

When it comes to bad credit records and poor payment profiles it's always a good idea to make sure that you're got payment plans and future payment plans in place for those old judgements and defaults you may have. also if you've paid them off and you have proof of this, then you should be A for AWAY!!!!

trick is, have a good motivation and lots of documentation and proof to go with it.
