Do some creative financing options. Check if the seller is willing to have a second mortgage on the property or home. A contract or agreement comes in here, where you promise to pay the seller a certain term of monthly payments, with interest. Then, to entice the seller, put in writing that the total amount would be due within two or three years or so. This would give you some time in refinancing and the seller would not feel he or she locked permanently into your contract. Save your down payment. There are many lenders available that may even give you a 100 percent-financing option, with low credit scores, but the interest rate that you have will be greatly reduced if you pay some amount as down payment. Sometimes, it is better waiting for about three to six months to purchase a home loan if that is the time you can have a good down payment. The interest rate you are paying in the next few months will be lower because you paid down at the start.
