Important Factors
Prime lenders can still work with a credit score between 600 and 700, provided you can demonstrate that you have a dependable source of income. Your income can fall into one of two categories:
- Confirmable income is preferred by lenders, and is proven through Notices of Assessment (NOA).
- Non-confirmable income, common among self-employed or commission-based employees, forces lenders to use an estimate of your income, based on the average income typical of your employment.
In summary, primary lenders can offer the best mortgage rates to clients who have great credit scores. Because bad credit, institutional and private lenders take on riskier clients, they compensate by charging higher interest rates. However, these lenders are no less reliable than primary lenders and can still connect you to a good mortgage product to meet your financial needs.
