In general, landlords breathe easier when a renter has a credit score over 700. However, a credit score over 650 generally is high enough to win over landlords. It all comes down to your competition, since a landlord may select an applicant with a better score over you.
FHA loans: Like VA loans, FHA loans are backed by the federal government. Thereâs no credit score minimum, but most FHA lenders prefer a score of at least 620. In 2014, some lenders theoretically dropped their minimum score to 580, but lenders have generally set higher standards since the mortgage meltdown. Successful FHA borrowers typically have higher scores. The average credit score for all FHA purchases in 2014 was 684, which is well above the minimum 580 score. FHA loans also require a down payment of 3.5 percent, as well as both an up-front mortgage insurance premium and monthly mortgage insurance, which now runs for the life of the loan.
