Immediately if you scores are high enough.

 

What is your middle credit score?

 

Value?

 

How much in current loans and how much cash on top?

 

How long on your job?

 

How much in the bank thats been there for 2 months?

If this is an owner occupied property, then this should not be complicated. Those loans are easily run through an automated underwriting system.

 

However, if this in an investment property then your options tighten up. Most lenders will need you to have at least 6 months of reserves (1 month of reserves = 1 month of principal, interest, taxes, and insurance) verifiable. Those funds need to have been in that account over the last 2 months. In addition most lenders will require that you have a solid 2 year history of employment. An exception would be if you just graduated from college and have been working in the field in which you hold your degree. So this narrows down your options to a NO DOC loan. This means that no employment, no income, and no assets are disclosed on the application so nothing needs to be verified. Your over all credit, not just the score, will play a huge factor on whether or not this program is something that can be done. There are several other questions that need to be addressed before determining if a loan is available.

You can get more to pay off debt. You have to buy the property first, get your name on title, before refinancing.
