Yes. If it's too low, you're going to have a hard time getting approved for a FHA loan. Also if you're in debt, the last thing you need is a mortgage.

You need a decent credit score to get a loan. The better your credit score the better interest rate you will get. If you are thinking of buying it is best to get pre-approved for a laon so that you know exactly how much you can afford.
