Hi Zuckerman,

Welcome to Mortgagefit forum.

Some of the common factors if present will help allow you to get a paper loan are:

• You have a good credit score, something in the range of 680 or higher.
• The LTV (Loan to Value) ratio for the loan is less than eighty percent.
• You have verifiable income.
• You have liquid reserves which is equal to 2 months mortgage payments. Such reserves could be checking, investment or savings accounts.
• Even if your credit score is 680 or higher, you cannot have any type of outstanding collections on your credit report which are non-medical.

There are often exceptions to the guidelines I have mentioned which are generally followed by lenders but will give you an idea of it.

If you need any other advice, please let me know.

I came to know abt the paper loan after reading all these posts. thanks for the information.

"A" paper is the best, just as an "A" in math class will put your name atop the roll of students when grades come out.
