At what point is your credit good enough to get a good rate? Or are rates proportionally better with better credit all the way to the “best” score?
Here is a good article that explains it:

As for FHA, your credit score determines your payment. 580 and above, your payment is 3.5% of the loan. 500-579 and you are looking at a 10% payment….basically saying they don’t want you to have a mortgage.
