short credit and work history, can I get a loan?
I'm 21, have about 1.5 years of spotty work history, a near 800 credit score, and $38k in cash and liquid assets. I want to buy my first property to Brrrr but I'm concerned that my limited work history and short credit history of only 1.5 years will be a turn off to lenders. I have been working a $10 per hour job for the last 2 months and this one is actually alright, there is a clear path I'm being pushed through to become a manager with a fantastic company in the state of FL. so I intend to build more work history here. are the pieces here for me to get a loan to buy a property? or will my limited work/credit history prevent it?
