My dear dear lady, we need to work on that score, but alas hubby is good to go, so send hubby to the nearest mortgage broker so he can apply for a loan.
The first thing you need to know is if you are qualified to purchase a home. You will not get a contract, talk to a real estate agent or anything unless you know if you can afford to purchase a home and how much this is gonna cost.
So the first thing you should do is contact a "Mortgage Broker' you may find this animal in your local telephone book. Tell him you plan to purchase a home in the next 6 months or so and want to get "PRE-APPROVED"
Now this person is gonna want to see lots of documents to prove certain things about you and anyone else trying to buy this home with you.
So to get you started I am gonna give you a few of the things you will need
#1 Federal income taxes for 2 yrs as well as W-2 for the same period
#2 Pay stubs covering one complete month.
#3 Six months from bank statements from all the banks you use to include any 401k plans at your place of employment.
This will get you started during your first interview. Now don't plan on a short trip to the mortgage broker's office or telephone to fill out the application. There are lots of questions as well as lots of forms to sign that are required by state and local authorities. He will even fax them to you. Make sure they are accurate as possible before returning them.
Once he has the documents signed and back in his hands, he will run a credit check thus finding out your credit score. With this credit score he can now tell you what loan programs you are qualified for. The appropriate monthly payment, how much the lender will allow you to borrow to purchase your home as well as tell you about the interest rate of your mortgage.
Once this has been discussed with you and whom ever is gonna purchase this home with you, now you are able to find a real estate agent or the mortgage broker can recommend one. At any rate you now have your "PRE-APPROVAL LETTER" and now you can look for this home you want to purchase.
Once found you go back to the mortgage broker to complete the transaction. He will order an appraisal to prove the value of the home you have selected. The real estate agent will draw up a sales contract for you and the seller to sign. He will give copies to the mortgage broker, and escrow closing agent.
Your mortgage broker might want additional items from you this is normal just find what he needs he is working on your behalf and acting as go between you and the lender.
Shortly thereafter the mortgage broker will call and set up a date for you to sign your loan docs, again plan on being there for a time. This is not hurry up process.
I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.

Check out a fifth third federal bank. They are excellent in helping first time home buyers. Also they will give him a loan with his score and both of you should go to the bank when you apply for a loan and ask them.

The ONLY way you'll get a loan is with him and him only. With a 350, you're not evenclose.
But you do need to figure out why your score is that low and start fixing it NOW or he'll have to get everything in his name-- and once the house is in it, lenders may not want to give hiim any more credit becuase he'll be maxed out with his debt to income.
Pay off any old delinquncies, collections, etc. Open 1-2 new cards (you might have to do secured or try first premier or orchard bank to get you started) and pay them on time each month. Just two credit cards and paying off your old crappy debt is all you need- in a couple years you should be 200+ points higher.

In joint applications, little attention is paid to the lower score. Assuming you bring in an income, that will help the application more than your score will hurt it.
