I would love to have a house that big. My whole family live there and we would have enough house to go around. But no one will give me a chance I pay my rent every month and I don’t get behind. But your credit has to be outstanding before you can buy anything. They say if it’s 500 or above you can get on FHA that is a lie my score has been 500 and above before. That they would not work with me I have no family that will help me either
