I’m looking to rent-to-own a house that is FSBO. In their online listing they said they are willing to do rent-to-own. I would simply like an answer to my question not a bunch of information about rent-to-own vs. buying a home. I am in Michigan if that helps.

Buying a for sale by owner with bad credit.?

admin — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 12:00:29 +0000

So I’ve searched google and resolved questions and I can’t find the answer I’m looking for.

Long story short: My husband and I inquired about buying a home and the lady (realtor) that did the credit check and such said that we would have better luck buying a home sold by the owner. She said my husbands credit is "fair" and is 10 points below what it needs to be for her to assist us. I already know my credit wont help. It will take another year for it to be where I want it. We don’t have any current "dings" It is all old stuff that we accumulated separately before we were married and we are working on fixing it now.

I found a house that’s a for sale by owner that is in our price range. She told me that I would work with my bank and they would help me take care of all of the financial stuff. The thing is we have already been told by one person that our credit is too low, but to go with a for sale by owner. How is this going to work with bad credit? It doesn’t make sense to me.

She (the realtor from b4) also told us that based on our income and bills that we were approved for 200k. We are actually looking for anything under 140k. The house we are looking into buying now is 130k.

Should we wait another year until our credit is perfect or will we be able to get this home that’s for sale by owner? I don’t have a problem with waiting, but if we can get into a house now I’d rather stop paying my landlord 00 a month for a little ass apartment when I can be in my own home with a pool for around the same amount.
we would also be using the VA loan

I know a realtor would say that they are worth every penny and I know some good ones. But some home owners want to save on the realtor fees and sell their home themselves. Does anyone have any advice on buying a home from someone you know and how best to handle it? An friend is wanting to sell their home. I am sort of interested, but don’t really trust this friend. The home is only a few years old and there’s not any problems that I know of and I would get it inspected and appraised. Looking for some feedback on this sort of thing. Thanks!

Could someone please explain to me if a Realtor is needed when you buy a property that is listed for sell by the homeowners instead of with a Realtor. Does the Realtor charge you a certain fee for this service? What is the process of buying a home like this? Pros? Cons?

Thanks!
