- Get copies of reports from transunion and equifax. They are free once a year. Figure out what's on the actual reports. Make sure things arent' reported incorrectly.
- Get a secured credit card from a reputable company (e.g. capitalone). Be responsible with it and pay it off on time.
- After a year, transition into a normal card. Be responsible.
- Wait.

you have 120k/300k saved up for a down payment? You realize that is 40% down payment? You know the CMHC requirement is 25%? with 40% down, the bank has decreased it's risk like no tomorrow. What's your salary like? If you make decent coin - you have made up more than enough for the low credit score. Get a mortgage broker and shop around...
