I’m glad that you are now more inspired!!! One thing to do maybe 90 days before you search is not move money around. I have a few different accounts and I transferred money ALL the time, so you have to go over each transfer and write down where the money came from (just so they know its not illegal money) and you have to show the documents to prove it. so if you can not transfer money like I did it will make the process a lot easier too.
Honestly right now buying is a lot better than renting. Also when you buy make a biweekly payment you are paying the interest down faster and therefore going to own sooner. By me paying a biweekly payment and adding 50 dollars to each, I will own the home in 19 years instead of 30. See how big of a difference that is and thousands of dollars I saved too!!
You can do it, just really work on that credit, and be dedicated in putting that money aside for your future. I wish you the very best. Be blessed and have faith!!!!

completed this goal
How I did it: I spent a year dedicating it to improving my credit score and saving money. It really paid off when I was pre-approved for 250,000. for a house. I searched for about two weeks for a place and then I found the perfect spot. The process took less than 30 days once the banker had all the information he needed. The most important thing is to have your finances together and get all the information to the banker as soon as possible. Good luck!! Read how I did it… 5 months ago
