These programs can usually help with lower credit scores and smaller down payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a Co-Signer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a family member or friend with a stronger credit profile who is willing to co-sign the mortgage, it can improve your chances of approval and potentially secure better terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Qualify-mortgage-low-credit-score-01.jpg\" alt=\"parents and child packing boxes\" class=\"wp-image-31153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Qualify-mortgage-low-credit-score-01.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Qualify-mortgage-low-credit-score-01-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shop Around For Lenders&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Different lenders have different criteria.
