Every mortgage company determines the credit worthiness of a borrower in a slightly differently manner. In many cases, mortgage lenders use several different measures to determine a borrower's eligibility for a home loan. However, your FICO score is usually the most important factor in a lender's ability or willingness to approve your loan request.
Some of the aspects of your credit that affect your FICO/credit score are your payment history, amount of debt payments, credit history, equity position, and outstanding balances or available credit.
I will help you further understand your credit rating and the impact it will have on your ability to obtain a home loan.

Due to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, only you and those businesses that have a "legitimate business need and a permissible purpose" can view your credit profile. Unless you have given written consent, individuals such as family members, neighbors, and co-workers are not allowed access to your credit profile. The businesses that generally have access to your credit information are credit grantors, collection agencies, employers, and insurance companies. Any company that receives a copy of your credit profile will be listed under the "Inquiry" section of your report.

Your credit profile provides me with information that will assist me in determining if you are eligible for a home loan, and if so, what types of loans. While this profile provides me with plenty of valuable information it is important to know that your race, religion, health records, criminal records and political preferences are not included in this report. Your credit profile provides information only about your employment history, credit information, public record information, and other inquires that have been made in the past.

All home loan lenders evaluate the risk associated with loaning a borrower funds and many factors will determine a borrower's risk. One important factor is an individual's FICO score. Your FICO score is a numeric representation of your financial responsibility and this number is based on your credit history. A scale is used to measure FICO scores and the number can be anywhere between 300 and 850. The higher the number the less risk associated with extending credit to that borrower. FICO scores are provided to mortgage lenders by the three major credit reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. The scores from these agencies are used when evaluating your home loan application.
