Passed all 4 parts and recently got certified. Does having a CPA help one in getting a home loan.

I am thinking of buying a place and was wondering with getting a CPA would make banks more likely to approve loan, or perhaps loan more, etc.

Any tips?

Thanks

In a word, no. They're far more interested in your employment history, current income and credit score. Good luck!

Being a CPA does not directly affect a home loan. If you turn your CPA into a steady job with solid income, that's what really matters to lenders. I could be an M.D. but if I don't have a job then I'm no better than a college drop out who is also jobless in the eyes of a lender.

Sorry, potential is not quite money. A good downpayment might be better especially if you're high risk.
