Starting Out in Real Estate

[Rod Lambe]

Dear BiggerPockets Members,

I took the BiggerPockets Members advice and reached out to a lender to see if I qualify to buy my own home. My scores are in the mid 600's but I owe Federal Taxes that I am making $500.00 a month payments on and collection medical bills that I am being garnished from, I was turned down! So, does this mean I cannot get lending anywhere to buy my first investment property? If you could please advise me your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Rod
