If your mid-score is 620 or higher, a VA loan will be the best option.

A VA loan can be the perfect solution for someone with credit problems.  Working with credit problems can be a serious challenge, the key is credit education.  If you'd like to understand more about credit and how a VA loan might work in your situation, feel free to contact my office for loads of information on credit, credit problems, and loan programs for credit challenged borrowers.
