Hey guys, I have some questions for any loan or mortgage officers out there for a friend that needs some help. Here is the scenario:

He has a credit score of 623...not very good.

His Yearly household income is 83,000

His Mortgage is at 233,000 and interest rate is at 6.25% with his home value at 328,000

His Credit Card Debt is 20000.

SO with all that in mind is there a possible way for him to refinance and consolidate this debt or is his credit score too low to do any of these things?

thanks for your help guys.

Get a HELOC for the remaining $95,000 of your equity and go buy a boat, you deserve it.

may as well right...I mean...if you are going to be broke, you may as well have as much fun as possible first!

Wow, how in the world can someone afford a $233,000 mortgage while carrying $20K in credit card debt on a household income of $83,000? Guess that is why you are probably asking the question......

Not sure if a lower interet rate with that kind of credit score and that much cc debt is possible or not.. I am curious how the $100K in equity affects it though.....as mentioned, pm Dimbee.

at the time of the mortgage he had a better paying job and could show better income to get the loan.

Is 623 his middle FICO score? If so, he can get a loan. He is below 80% Loan To Value. Depending on what are the minimum required payments for his debt, I don't think his Debt To Income ratio will be out of whack. It doesn't hurt for him to at least do some investigating. The 10 year Treasury Bond Yield is still ridiculously low, as are rates. Your friend can easily drop their interest rate by 1 point and more on a 30 year fixed.

623 is his equifax score...i dont have any more info beyond that. I think his question is if he can get a refi to be able to add the credit card balances to his mortgage and refi for a better interest rate all at the same time.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
