HOW IMPORTANT IS A CREDIT RATING?
YOUR CREDIT RATING IS THE PRIMARY ELEMENT IN QUALIFYING FOR
A MORTGAGE LOAN!
Your credit risk score or “FICO score” is what lenders look
at to determine the likelihood your loan might end up in
default. The three digit score ranges from 400-900 and is
determined by numerous factors, including payment history,
amount owed on accounts, length of credit history, new
accounts, and types of credit.
If you have had some credit problems in the past, it doesn’t
mean you won’t be able to get a loan. However, you may have
to pay a slightly higher interest rate.
We have loan officers on our staff, who can help you make
sense of your credit report and offer guidance on how to
possibly get a loan with your current credit score, or how
to make improvements, which would raise your score.
