Home of my dreams and I have a 540 score. Get Financed

I found the home of my dreams,,,, I have a good stable job, but my credit score is 540. The few lenders and brokers I have contacted, treat me like I have a disease because I don’t have a 800 credit score! I don’t believe that every person with a home has perfect credit ( give me a break! ) There has got to be someone out there who can help me (either up my score, or work with me with the score I have). I am willing to work on my credit score for a few months (I really want to move by Feb-March 2009)….

Do you know everything that is on your credit report and why your score is a 540.
The good accounts
The bad accounts
Everything 540 is below a 640 is below a 740.
homes lenders do not need an 800 scorebut they do need something stable to hang on to. Someone is going to ask your potential lender why did you lend this person money. First you must also realize that going to regular banks that regualry lend regualr people money is not where you should go.
You are irregular.
Then lets talk about the home of you dreams.
Is it affordable for you.
Do you have a 20 percent downpayent.
Have you been on your current well paying job for more than 5 years.
Have you lived in your curent area for more than five years
Have you lived at your current address for more than 2 years.
Have you considered paying too much interest to buy the home of your dreams
Like going to wells fargo for a large interest loan....... well lets start here
what is on your report
bad good ugly
