Home loan

I make 75k a year and I have a credit score of 680. My cc usage is 48% of  7000 on three cards..... Car payment is 770 a month. I've been  pre approved for 250000 at 4.19% but I was wondering where I could get a better rate..

Re: Home loan

How much money do you have available to put down?  I'm wondering if you paid off the $3500 or so of credit card if you're score would rise and get you a better rate.

Total amount of available credit $100K

Re: Home loan

What type of loan were you pre-approved for - FHA or conventional?
