Will this Credit Change Hurt New Home Buyers?
from Today in Mortgages · host Today in Mortgages
Today, on "Today in Mortgages," we discuss a proposed change to credit reports by the FHFA. The FHFA wants to go from three credit scores that are typically pulled to two credit scores. We think more homebuyers could be left out, because not all creditors report to all three credit bureau. This could lead to lower credit score, higher rates and higher fees. But one less report could hopefully lower the cost to pull credit. The fees are typically over $100. As mortgage professionals, we need to make sure we know how to explain this potential change to credit reports to our borrowers. We want to coach them so that they can succeed and get into the home they want!Article: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/mortgages-could-ultimately-become-more-150000225.html_______Grow Your Business: https://join.nflp.com/______FREE MARKETING RESOURCE: https://todayinmortgages.com/marketing_________ Today in mortgages is produced by Network Funding, LP, which is an equal housing lender, NMLS# 2297.
