Guest low income_bad credi

My parents are thinking of buying a house in United States and the house is on sale for $400k.

They are paying 25% down payment but due to once my dad went to India and forgot to pay his credit card bill which was less than $300, his loan is not getting approved. Any suggestion which is the best bank to go in this case and any Govt. Plans for loans in this kind of situation?

This topic needs urgent replies. Request to MODS and Admin to move it to General Section.

Thanks

The simple answer to this is to pull your credit report. go to https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp. If that all looks gravy, I suggest your father call bank that he applied for the loan at... and ask to see if the underwriter could explain why the loan was denied. You will not get to speak to the underwriter directly, but it may be that the customer service men working at the bank can contact him/her and figure it out.

Not paying the $300 CC is absolutely not what is causing his loan to not be approved. If there is a problem that is on your credit report, and assuming it is not legitimate, you should contact all 3 credit report agencies and get it removed.

Some things required:

1. Steady income. Typically income should be three times more than approx. home payment. If on salary then they will look at your most currents w-2s. If self-employed then you need to show past two years tax return. No exception.

2. As wales mentioned, one need to be aware of their credit history. Typical credit score required to buy home is approx. high 600's. Above 700 is excellent. Mine was in high 600's when I bought house couple of yrs ago. One must have good credit history; means couple of credit cards with less debt ratio. If your credit cards are full, which will pull your credit score down. More hard enquires on your credit will also pull your score down.

3. Above 20% down payment is good and now considers as minimum down payment by mortgage lenders. Paying above 20% down payment will also save you couple of hundred $ per month from PMI (premium mortgage insurance).

Bankers are very tough and they don't have enough money to lend, so they pick the best candidate. Your best chance can be FHA loan (govt backed) and they require only 4 to 5 percent down payment but needs flowing income, good credit score.

Also, credit score sheet mst be with your dad as broker should give the report, required by law.. (depends on states)

    • Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.
    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
