Thelio, I would suggest an FHA 203k or 203k streamline to make this place yours rather than spending 2 years fixing it up it can be fixed now and you can also assist if you hold a license in a trade also it will keep your money in the bank. I can be reached at ballen@accessnational.com a nationwide broker or 888-354-3299.

Based on the limited information you provided, you can qualify. But there are too many variables to say for sure... Best advice I can give you is to contact a local mortgage broker, not a bank, and apply with them.. they have access to numerous lenders and can find the right loan product for your particular scenario.

I agree that you might qualify but the real test would be to contact a licensed loan officer. I would also suggest a 203K streamline FHA purchase loan. That way you can borrower up to $35,000 for improvements at interest rates under 4%. You can always pay extra each month on your mortgage to bring down the balance quickly.
