I'm not in the industry anymore (i used to be a mortgage wholesaler).
I don't think credit score/history requirements are that strict right now.
I don't think the reserve/asset requirements are that strict right now (there are still gift programs for 100% loans).
But the income requirements are absolutely tougher.
Ability to pay is much more important than a desire to pay. During the downturn, 700 and 800+ credit scores were foreclosing. It is one of the side effects of large scale unemployment.
