The Secret to Getting The Best Mortgage

Dramatic changes are occurring in the mortgage industry, changes that are making it significantly more difficult to obtain a new mortgage or competitive rate refinance with anything other than the highest of FICO® scores. These changes, compounded by decreasing property values and increasing Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) interest rates make the ability to improve your FICO score even more critical. 

 

Your credit score is the most important item in determining your loan eligibility, interest rate, and how much you can borrow (loan to value or LTV.) The first step in getting the best mortgage is knowing what's on your credit report and obtaining your FICO scores.  MyFICO.com is the only place where you can obtain each of your credit reports and FICO scores. All other sites provide other score models (often referred to as "FAKO" scores.) MyFICO.com allows you to get your scores online in seconds, and provides simulation tools to help you learn how to improve your FICO scores.

 

Maximizing your credit score so you qualify for the best mortgage possible is challenging as credit scoring is counter-intuitive. Changes that you think will improve your credit score often have the exact opposite effect (click here to see how 1 point can cost you thousands on your next mortgage or refinance.)

 

Choose Your Mortgage Professional Wisely - A Single Phone Call Can Save You Thousands
Don't make the mistake of choosing a mortgage lender or program without knowing your options. Lenders with access to Credit Technologies advanced rescoring solutions could save you thousands on your mortgage or refinance, or help get you approved when other lenders say no. Here's a simple example -

 

"There is a credit card used by millions of consumers that is virtually guaranteed to lower your FICO score by 20+ points. This occurs even if you have never had a late payment. Simply having this credit card in your purse or wallet can unknowingly cost you thousands on your mortgage or refinance."

 

Locate Certified Mortgage Professionals in Your Area

Ask your mortgage professional to explain this credit card dilemma to you and determine if your credit score is impacted (the solution is often a single phone call.) If they can't, you'll likely pay too much for your mortgage or refinance. Whether you're looking for a mortgage, or just want a second opinion - We can provide you a free list of certified professionals in your area specially trained to make sure you qualify for the best loan possible. Chat with a live customer service rep or send us an email, or simply call us at 800.473.1380.

Knowledge is The Key

There are usually simple ways to improve your FICO score and save thousands on virtually any loan including your mortgage, refinance - even your auto insurance rates. Learn the magic mortgage numbers.

 

Your mortgage professional should be able to,

  • Explain your FICO scores, and how they impact your loan

  • Explain why your scores differ between the repositories (Experian, Trans Union and Equifax)

  • Identify credit score issues and provide a concise, easy to follow plan to quickly improve your scores (often 72 hours or less) enabling you to obtain the best mortgage loan possible.

Please note - Credit Technologies does not release your information to any third party.  We instead provide you contact information for mortgage professionals in your area that are certified through Credit Technologies and have access to our mortgage credit rescoring technologies.
