It’s always a good idea to obtain a copy of your credit report before applying for a home loan. You can correct any errors on your credit profile in advance, establish credit if necessary or start repairing your credit if you’ve had problems in the past. Lenders look very carefully at your credit as an indicator of your “character” or your willingness to repay your loan. Having poor credit, little or no established credit or unresolved dispute with creditors can affect your purchasing power and your ability to get a loan. Contact the three credit reporting companies for copies of your credit report. Experian - www.experian.com
Trans Union - www.transunion.com
Equifax - www.equifax.com
When you receive your credit report check for the following items: • Incorrect Entries - If there are mistakes on your credit report (i.e. accounts that aren’t yours or on-time payments that are showing as late), you can have them corrected by writing to each credit bureau and requesting that the information be deleted. They will contact the creditor who must respond within 30 days. If the creditor does not respond, the item will be removed and a new credit report will be issued to you. If there is still a dispute, you can add a 100-word statement to your file explaining your side of the story. • Outdated Negative Credit - If there are unfavorable credit items older than 7 years showing on your report, follow the procedure outlined above. Bankruptcy can be removed after 10 years. • Current Negative Credit - If you have current credit problems, the time to resolve them is before you buy. Re-establishing good credit after a bankruptcy or other credit problems is very important. Having an established credit history is also important as lenders want to see a track record of debts owed that have been repaid. If you haven’t already done so, apply for credit cards and use them or establish a credit history by documenting your monthly rent payments and your monthly payments to utility companies.
