What's the minimum credit score for a mortgage in 2026?

It depends on the loan type. FHA loans require a minimum of 580 for 3.5% down (or 500 with 10% down). Conventional loans typically need 620+. VA loans have no official minimum, but most lenders want 620+. USDA loans require 640 in most cases.

Can you get a mortgage with a 580 credit score?

Yes, through FHA loans. A 580 score qualifies you for an FHA mortgage with 3.5% down payment. Rates will be higher than someone with a 740 score, and you'll pay mortgage insurance premiums, but homeownership is accessible at this level.

How much does credit score affect mortgage interest rates?

Significantly. The difference between a 620 and a 760 credit score on a $300,000 mortgage can mean 1.5% to 2% higher interest, which translates to $80,000 to $120,000 more in total interest over 30 years. Every 20-point improvement matters.
