From my mortgage friends, it's good enough. I think anything above 650 would be acceptable for mortgage.

Can you show income documentation? what about rental history?
As for rental history, I live with my parents still but I refuse to pay rent when in fact I'm funding someone else's mortgage.

If you have no rental history you are probably going to be required to put more money down.

A lot of people get trapped into the 'owning is better than renting' mentality, especially in light of the recent run up in housing prices fueled by lax lending standards
Generally, if you are planning on buying a condo/house KNOWING you will leave in a couple of years (4-7), you may have been better off renting.
To really know, you really have to estimate your costs going forward of owning, and compare them to renting.
Carbon, this isn't pointed to you, but it might help you or others reading this thread.
