Each
participating mortgage broker or lender is independently owned.
Almost everyone has experienced a difficult credit period in their life and it is nothing to be ashamed of. Rate yourself to help both your lender and yourself get the best mortgage terms possible. 90% of households in America have had or are having credit problems. If you have experienced recent credit problems, realize mortgage lending is based upon a risk factor. Below you will find a chart with a basic outline that will help you determine the risk factor in which you may fall. Every investor has slightly different criteria for a "B" or "C" or "D" rating. Your mortgage broker will evaluate your Borrower Information Form and confirm if you rated yourself accurately.

1. Credit risk scoring The mortgage industry has adopted a credit risk scoring method. It is a numerical grid which takes into account the multiple factors in your credit history. Most lenders are credit-score driven. You will find this credit risk score as an element of your credit report when it is run. Please ask your broker (below) to explain how this works. A simplified general chart is provided for your convenience. For full chart details, speak with your mortgage broker by filling out the form in your state. 2.
