A bad credit mortgage lender helps you get your loan approved much faster than programs offered by credit unions and banks. But you have to pay the price to get a bad credit loan. The loan you get will carry a higher rate of interest and will have higher closing fees.

It is advisable to check the rates with a few more bad credit lenders and compare. Even though you have to pay a higher rate, see that the one you settle at is reasonable and the most favorable. At present interest rates are low so try and get the best deal.

You can always wait a while, improve your credit score and then get a loan at a low rate of interest. Some bad credit mortgage loans carry a pre-payment penalty, so make sure your loan doesn't have one. These bad credit mortgage loans have 6 months to 2-3 years pre-payment penalty. This means you have to pay huge sums of interest for at least 6 months before you can pay off the loan. If there is a pre-payment penalty you should take the loan that has the shortest term so that you can pay off the loan quickly without paying any penalty.
