Credit Score Conundrum

Credit Score Conundrum

As you may already know, when buying house and you have to qualify for a mortgage, one of the most important things is to have a reasonable  credit score. The better your credit score, the better the interest rate you will get.

You can check your credit from one of the credit rating companies like Equifax, Experian and Transunion. There are also many companies that provide free credit reports. Here is one site that you may use Annualcreditreport.com

Here is an example of how your credit rating may affect your mortgage interest rate and your monthly payments.

Let us assume that 2 borrowers are getting a $300,000 mortgage each and compare the differences is makes on your interest rates and monthly payments. This is for a 30 year fixed mortgage.

Loan Amount   Fico Score   Interest Rate   Monthly Payment

Borrower 1:                   $300,000 .          750 .               3.75%                $1390

Borrower 2:                   $300,000            620                 4.50%                $1520

You can see that a difference in Fico score of 130 points increases the mortgage payments by $130/mo.

So when you are you are looking for the best mortgage rates for you, you may wonder why you are not quoted the rates you see advertised online or by the banks. Credit scores can have a big impact on your interest rates and thereby of your monthly payments.
