Both my boyfriend and I Have very, very bad credit.We Have Paid off all of Our Debts, but thats Still Does not help o cause.
We want to own a home and NOT rent.
How Are We Going To Be Able to get a mortgage w / Such bad credit.We do not Want To Be renters forever.We CAN AFFORD a home, drank We Can not Get the loan.
