TerpsFanguy | Do Mortgage lenders check credit scores from all 3 bureaus or do they check from any 1 bureau randomly? |
My wife and I will be applying for a home loan soon and between 6 total scores, we have 4 which are above 680 and 2 that are hovering just under 600. Will the lenders take the middle score, an average, or simply select a random score? |

The majority of them look at all 3 scores and then consider the middle score to be your score. (middle score per person, not the two middle scores between both you.)
However some lenders DO look at only one. I jsut bought a house through bank of america with more than 20% down and they only pulled experian-- which was a surprise.
Just ask them their policy. It's not a secret.
And if your'e saying you both have 2 high scores and 1 drastically lower one, find out why-- you might need to dispute some info. |

Reports are pulled from all 3 lenders and the middle score is used to determine approval. |

It will provide on the Lender Some will check one or all of them. When you speak with your lender they should be able to tell you what agenies they use to check your credit. Always try your local bank first or credit union they will be more helpful in guilding you though the process and help you getthe best rate. |

They check all of them but take the middle score for the loan. |

they always do the midscore. so if you have 680,620 615. They will use the 620. |

I believe that they take the average or middle score.
Compare closing costs, some are very high and some are lower. As with the rates , higher rate, lower closing costs and visa versa. Make sure you look at the total amount financed. Read all the charges and ask, why d I have to pay this, if something doesn't look right. I think my Mortgage guy tryed to slip in a few hidden charges because I got a great rate first then told him I would only 1,500 in closing fees than the 4,500. Take it or leave it, huh?
But it's my money and I work hard for it.
I worked with 3 mortgage people and told them all that I was. I told them whoever gave me the best deal would earn my business.
As, one did.
Good Luck, friend.
You should be able to buy a great house now with the housing market in the toilet. If you go to Las Vegas, the houses there are now dirt cheap, people bought them for too much about 2 years ago. I know this because my Mom bought a house with an increasing interest rate and she can't refinance because the house has lost value. She says many people in her neighborhood have left their new homes. She lives in a great house in a good area. |

They take all three and average them out. Those are great scores.
Good Luck! |

Here's the first piece of advice: Get a Real Estate agent. I know that it seems that they are expensive, but they are absolutely worth it in a first homebuying experience. (If you would like help, email me and I'll help with that.) An agent would be able to help with this.
Home loans are monsters! You will have all three credit records pulled and composited. Information on one will be combined with others. The most important thing is to make sure it is all accurate. For instance:
1. When I purchased a first home (using a first-time homebuyers loan), one of my credit reports showed a current home payment; you can imagine why that was a problem! It was my PARENTS loan - my father and I have the same name. 2. I also had educational loans showing on one report that had been paid off years ago.
My agent was invaluable in halping me take care of this. I got a simple report and crossed-out whatever was inaccurate with a two or three word reason. My agent took care of the rest.
Homebuying is a long, arduous process, but it is well worth it in the long run. Congratulations on the impending purchase and best of luck in the future!!! |
