Trouble qualifying for a mortgage loan? Consider these options:

Wait and work on repairing your credit, paying down debt and saving for your down payment.

Get a cosigner, someone with a better credit score and higher income that will be able to make your payments, if necessary.

Contact a mortgage broker; they work with many lenders and may be able to find a loan.
