The minimum credit score required for an FHA loan is 500. However, with a credit score between 500-579, you’ll need a 10% down payment.
If your credit score is 580 or higher, you can qualify with a down payment as low as 3.5% of the purchase price.
Keep in mind that while these are FHA requirements, individual lenders often set their own minimums that may be higher (typically 620-640).
