How to get approved for a Kentucky Mortgage Loan in 2024

To determine if you can get approved for a Kentucky mortgage, several factors need to be considered, including your credit score, income, employment history, debt-to-income ratio, and down payment. Here’s a general overview of what lenders typically look for:

Credit Scores : Most Kentucky Mortgage lenders prefer a credit score of 620 or higher for conventional loans. FHA loans may accept lower credit scores, starting around 500, but a higher score (typically 580 or above) can improve your chances and offer better terms.

Here are the general credit score requirements for FHA, VA, USDA, and Fannie Mae mortgage loans in Kentucky:

Loan Program	Minimum Credit Score Requirement	Additional Notes
FHA Loan	500 to 580	A credit score of 500 to 579 requires a 10% down payment; a score of 580 or higher requires a 3.5% down payment.
VA Loan	No minimum score	VA lenders are more flexible with credit scores, but most lenders prefer a score of 620 or higher.
USDA Loan	no minimum score	USDA lenders typically require a minimum credit score of 640 or higher.
Fannie Mae Loan	620 or higher	Fannie Mae loans generally require a credit score of 620 or higher.

Income and Employment History: Lenders evaluate your income stability and 2 year employment history to ensure you have a reliable source of income to make mortgage payments. Consistent employment and sufficient income are crucial.

Here’s a chart outlining the employment and work history requirements for Kentucky FHA, VA, USDA, and Fannie Mae mortgage loans:

Loan Program	Employment History	Work History	Guidelines
Kentucky FHA Loan	2 years of consistent employment with steady income	2 years of stable employment, including gaps explained	Employment can include salaried, self-employed, or contract positions. Gaps in employment may require explanations and documentation.
Kentucky VA Loan	Stable income with continuous employment	Stable work history with no significant gaps	VA loans focus on the stability of income rather than specific employment duration. Military service may fulfill employment requirements.
Kentucky USDA Loan	2 years of stable employment with reliable income	2 years of continuous employment, including explanations for gaps	USDA loans prioritize consistent income and employment history. Gaps may require explanations and additional documentation.
Fannie Mae Loan	2 years of employment with steady income and job stability	2 years of stable employment, including explanations for gaps	Fannie Mae loans emphasize a stable work history with a focus on income stability. Gaps in employment may need explanations and additional documentation.

These guidelines provide an overview of the employment and work history requirements for FHA, VA, USDA, and Fannie Mae mortgage loans. Lenders may have specific criteria and may consider factors such as income stability, type of employment, gaps in employment, and documentation of income sources. Borrowers should consult with a mortgage professional or lender to understand the detailed employment and work history requirements for their loan application.

Debt-to-Income (DTI) Ratio: This ratio compares your monthly debt payments to your gross monthly income. Lenders typically prefer a DTI ratio of 31% to 45% on front end ratio and up to 55% on the back-end ratio, although some may accept higher ratios with compensating factors.

Here’s a chart comparing the debt ratio requirements forKentucky FHA, VA, USDA, and Fannie Mae mortgage loans:

Loan Program	Front-End DTI Ratio	Back-End DTI Ratio	Guidelines
Kentucky FHA Loan	Up to 45%	Up to 56.99%	Front-end DTI includes housing-related expenses (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Back-end DTI includes all monthly debts.
Kentucky VA Loan	41% or higher	41% or higher	VA guidelines do not have specific DTI ratio limits but focus on residual income after accounting for housing and debt costs.
Kentucky USDA Loan	Up to 33%	Up to 45%	Front-end DTI includes housing expenses. Back-end DTI includes all monthly debts.
Kentucky Fannie Mae Loan	Up to 40%	Up to 50%	Front-end DTI includes housing expenses. Back-end DTI includes all monthly debts.

Down Payment: The amount of your down payment can also impact your approval chances. A larger down payment can lower your loan-to-value ratio (LTV) and reduce the lender’s risk.

Here’s a down payment chart for Kentucky FHA, VA, USDA, and Fannie Mae mortgage loans:

Loan Program	Minimum Down Payment	Down Payment Source
Kentucky FHA Loan	3.5% of purchase price	Can be from personal savings or gift funds
Kentucky VA Loan	0% (No down payment)	N/A (VA loans offer 100% financing)
Kentucky USDA Loan	0% (No down payment)	N/A (USDA loans offer 100% financing)
Kentucky Fannie Mae Loan	3% to 5% of purchase price	Can be from personal savings or gift funds

Other Factors: Lenders may also consider your savings and assets, existing debts, credit history, and the type of mortgage you’re applying for (e.g., FHA, VA, USDA, conventional).

To get a more accurate assessment of your mortgage approval chances, it’s best to consult with a mortgage lender or broker. They can review your financial situation, credit history, and specific loan requirements to determine your eligibility and help you navigate the mortgage approval process.

Top 4 reasons why mortgage applications are denied

1. Debt-to-income ratio

Whether you go through a traditional bank or a mortgage lender, your debt-to-income ratio is one of the most important elements of your mortgage application. This ratio is a simple measure of how much debt you carry expressed as a percentage of the amount of money you earn before taxes and deductions each month.

To figure out your debt-to-income ratio, add up all of your monthly debts (including student loans, car payments, credit card bills, and other loans with fixed payments, but not including utilities bills and other variable monthly expenses) and divide it by your gross—or pre-tax—monthly earnings. Most mortgage lenders are looking for a debt-to-income ratio that doesn’t exceed 45 to 50 %, and that includes the mortgage payment you are applying to take on.

If your debt-to-income ratio is too high to consider taking out a mortgage at the moment, that’s a good sign that it’s time to focus on paying down debt before doing any serious house-hunting.”

There are some exceptions to the 45% to 50% rule, but in general, this is the number you want to keep in mind when you do your initial debt-to-income ratio calculations. Not only does this tell you whether you are carrying more debt than most lenders are willing to work with, it will also tell you how much mortgage you can realistically hope to borrow. By paying off any one (or more) of your debts, you’d free up more money to go toward a potential mortgage.

If your debt-to-income ratio is too high to consider taking out a mortgage at the moment, that’s a good sign that it’s time to focus on paying down debt before doing any serious house-hunting.

2. Credit score

This is another biggie. As you probably know, credit scores are used by lending institutions to assess each individual’s creditworthiness based on their financial history, including payment history (on-time versus late or missed payments), total amount of debt, length of credit history, and other factors. Credit scores, which are measured slightly differently across three major reporting agencies, range from 300 to 850 and are considered to be an at-a-glance measure of the trustworthiness of individual borrowers.

In general, credit scores below 620 are typically considered subprime and may make it more challenging to get a mortgage, especially with the most competitive interest rates. (If your credit score is in the subprime category, you aren’t alone: as of 2015, a little over half of American consumers—56%—were found to have subprime scores.)

Those with lower credit scores may still be able to get a mortgage—it will likely just require more shopping around (and having more cash on hand for a down payment is helpful, too). While Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac each require a minimum credit score of 620, the FHA has more forgiving parameters, making FHA loans a better bet if you are in credit-repairing mode.

FHA loans were created in the 1930s to make homeownership more widely accessible, and their guidelines stipulate that credit scores as low as 500 may be accepted with a 10% down payment. Credit scores of 580 or above, meanwhile, may be eligible with as little as 3.5% down. Remember, though, that you will need to identify lenders that don’t apply additional credit score overlays on top of these minimum requirements in order to actually score a mortgage with the lowest required scores.

Keep in mind, also, that anytime you apply for a new loan, you’ll typically accrue a “hard inquiry” on your credit report as your potential lender checks out your credit history. Too many hard inquiries can negatively impact your credit score, so if you know you will be applying for a mortgage soon—or if you’ve already been pre-approved for a mortgage—you’ll want to avoid applying for any other loans (like credit cards or car loans) until after you’ve secured your mortgage.

3. Employment history

Your employment history is another major factor when it comes to your mortgage application. In general, most lenders want to see at least two years of consistent of employment history at the time you apply for your mortgage.

Requirements may differ depending on whether you are paid a salary versus hourly wages, work part-time versus full-time, and whether you are employed or self-employed. Note, too, that different lenders may handle income from things like a second job and overtime differently; these sources of income may not always be allowed to count toward your overall income on your mortgage application. Given these variables, you should be sure to tell potential lenders the details of your employment situation at the outset to make sure you don’t hit any unforeseen bumps in the road.

If, after approaching a handful of lenders, you find that your employment history is a little too spotty, now may be the time to focus on remaining consistently employed for a year or two before applying for a mortgage.

4. Appraisal issues

Occasionally, a mortgage application may be denied because of issues with the property itself and how it is valued rather than your own personal information.

Remember that the sale price of a home may not always correspond with the appraised value of the home. The appraised value is based on local comps, or other comparable houses that have recently sold in the same area, and other factors. Because the house you are buying will be used as collateral against your home loan, lenders use appraisals to confirm that the mortgage amount you are requesting is in line with the actual value of the house. If the appraised value is significantly lower than the agreed-upon sale price, you’ll either need the seller to come down off their price, or you would need to pay the difference out of pocket.

Note that especially unique properties—think geodesic domes and other, less striking examples—may come up against appraisal issues because of a lack of relevant comps.

We just moved here the first of January in 2017 from Ohio to the Louisville, KY area and we found Joel’s website online. He was quick to respond to us and got back the same day on our loan approval. He was very knowledgeable about the local market and kept us up-to date throughout the loan process and was a pleasure to meet at closing. Would recommend his services.

Angela Forsythe

“We were searching online for mortgage companies in Louisville, Ky locally to deal with and found Joel’s website, and it was a godsend. He was great to work with, and delivered on everything he said he would do. I ended up referring my co-worker at UPS, and she was very pleased with his service and rates too. Would definitely vouch for him.” September 2016

Monica Leinhardt

“We contacted Joel back in July 2011 to refinance our Mortgage and he was great to work with. We contacted several lenders locally and online, and most where taking almost 60 days to close a refinance, Joel got it done in 23 days start to finish,I would definitely recommend him. He got us 3.75% with just $900 in closing costs on our FHA Streamline loan.

Not only was he personable and easy to reach, he was extremely knowledgable in his field and made sure to find us the best rate and a top notch mortgage company. We were able to complete the process in less than 3 weeks with his expertise. I find Joel to have the utmost high integrity and I recommend him to anyone who say’s they are need of mortgage assistance.

Melody Glasscock March 2014

Absolutely Amazing!! I emailed Joel after I had just got a denial from a bank and just thought i would try to get some advice on what my next steps would be to get a house. I honestly didn’t expect to even get a reply because my credit is not great. That was about a week and a half ago. I just signed a contract on a house last night. ONLY because of Joel Lobb. He even worked with us throughout the weekend, which shocked me. Best decision I have ever made. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WORKING WITH US THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PROCESS.

Cee Bellisle August 2018

😃

Contacted him about buying a home and he was great to work with. I was moving to Louisville Ky to take a new job and he walked me through the entire process. He explained to me all the different options for FHA, VA, USDA mortgage loans and credit score requirements versus Fannie Mae. Since I was a first time home buyer I needed alot of help and guidance. I would definitely recommend him. Fast to respond and available to answer questions that I or my realtor had after hours.

Anderson Johnson April, 2018

We moved from Michigan to Northern Kentucky area and we were really impressed. We got a USDA loan no money down and closed in less than 3.5 weeks. We shopped around online with other lenders but Joel was always first to respond and his rates were just a little better than other lenders. He kept us informed through the process along with our realtor and there was absolutely no surprises like we heard from other co-workers and friends that they experienced in their loan process. We have already referred another co-worker to Joel . He’s AWESOME!

Patty Kingston July 2018

Wow, what a great loan officer. I was referred to him by our agent and he was great to work with. We used him for a USDA no money down loan in Shelby County and we were really impressed. We were afraid we could not buy a home since we did not have money saved for a down payment, but Joe l was able to get us a zero down loan and we even got our appraisal fee and good faith deposit back at closing. We actually got money back at closing!!! I Can’t think him enough. Our family moved from our apartment in the south end of town to get our own home with 5 acres for our kids and 2 dogs, at a payment that is equal to our rent payment also. .Thanks Again Joel. May god bless you

Patty Locker

We contacted Joel about buying a house on our move from Ohio for my husband’s job transfer with Ford. We put a lot of trust in him since we were new to the area and first time home buyers in the Louisville KY market, and he always delivered on what he said. It took us a while to find a home due to the lack of homes, but once we got one, he was always quick to respond our questions via text or email ,and kept us informed through the process. We got to meet him at the closing and he was super nice and even got us a closing gift for our home which we didn’t expect at all. Super nice guy 😀!!! I would definitely recommend him for a local Home loan in the Louisville area.

pam dolby

I got a VA loan with Joel and he was great. He is an ex-army guy so he could relate to my past experiences of being a veteran and moving around the country a lot. I had some credit issues that required a little extra work but Joel was able to find A VA lender to approve my situation as far as having past bad credit problems and a lower credit score. We closed yesterday on our home here in Louisville and we could not be happier. We finally have a home of our own thanks to Joel . I would definitely recommend him for a mortgage loan. Great experience and closed 8 days before expected close date so we were able to move in early.

😍😍😍👍

I contacted Joel about the $10,000 KY Housing Grant last month and we were able to get it and I just closed on my home. He was great to work with and if you are a first time home buyer here in Louisville, I would definitely contact him. I met him at his office and he was very nice and knowledgeable and kept me informed through the process. No surprises either so I was very happy. I am new homeowner thanks to Joel .
