Q. What is a credit score?
A credit score, is a tool used by lenders to evaluate a person’s ability to fulfill their financial commitments.
Q. Why does my credit score matter?
Having a higher credit score can make it easier to qualify for loans, obtain housing, and receive better rates.
Q. What impacts my credit score?
Credit can be built up through a history of making timely payments on credit cards, loans, and services that get reported to the credit bureaus. Scores can be hurt by missing payments, going over or near credit limits, or taking out new loans.
Q. Why should I get scores from all three credit bureaus?
Credit scores and reports can differ across the three main credit bureaus. Lenders will typically check your credit from more than just one of these. When applying for a mortgage, for example, lenders typically consider your middle score of the three to be where you stand. Hence, having your scores from all three bureaus is the best way to gain a full understanding.
Q. Why should I check my credit report regularly?
Regular monitoring of your credit report is crucial to spot any inaccuracies or potential fraud. If you're planning to apply for credit soon, keeping your report and scores current is advisable, as it ensures that lenders are making decisions based on the most accurate information.
