4.75 is a dream with his credit history. He should take the money and run.

but I think the 4.75 may be a little much.

He's got bad credit. That's still historically low.
That's lower than what I got 2 years ago with a 760 score

the 4.75% is not that high considering his credit score. Its going to be a manual underwrite with the VA but he can get it done. best of luck to him

no i havent heard of an investor looking past the 3 year rule for short sales and i doubt that they will. foreclosure are 5years and a short sales is looked upon in the same light by most investors outside of FHA.

i am trying to get mine to your level now. Everything basically paid off other than a few credit cards (long story), guess my credit available is still not as high as it could be which could be hurting me now.

Thanks. Yeah, I figured I was SOL. I hated to do the SS but it was the smart thing to do.
Man, the OPs bro and I have roughly same score and I have enough cash today to put down 5% in the areas that I want to buy in!
I'll just have to man up and do my time. 3 years, no possibility of parole

Very, very strenuous in comparison to a brokered loan through an outfit that will more than likely sell the paper inside of 12 months from the time of first payment receipt.
How would this affect him GFunk? If he closes at a good rate for a fixed term how does the selling of the paper a year later effect his brother?

0 down is one of the perks you get for serving your country.

With a score of 619, he should jump on 4.75 and 0 down. Years ago, I had a score of 720+ and couldn't get that kind of deal. Note: had some credit card debt back then, but not maxed out.

I think it's the interest rate that gets his goat. That is a tremendous rate for someone in the bottom 40% of credit scores.
