I'd like to buy a house, in the under $100,000 range, but my credit score is 512. I have verifiable income of $35,000. My husband and I make around $70,000 per year together. He has similar credit to mine. There are some issues on my credit report that stem from fraudulent credit card use and old medical bills that I am working to get resolved. I can make a down payment, around 10%. Also, I'm interested in an older house to restore, since historic preservation is my career field. How can I borrow more than the amount of the purchase price to do renovations?
