Your Credit and Your Home Purchase

July 22nd, 2015 by tisner

When buying a home it is prudent to know about your credit score. According to a recent survey by Experian, many of those in the market for a home are already aware of the importance of their credit score. However, only half of recent buyers said they checked their credit when they first considered purchasing a home.

  1. 67% of buyers are NOT pre-approved
  2. 45% of buyers delay their purchase (ultimately) to improve their credit

That is almost HALF of buyers who delay the purchase based on information they should have known prior to shopping for a home.

This survey underscores how important the pre-approval loan process is. Even if just to give buyersan idea of what their credit report contains, what their rate and payment would be and how much they can qualify to buy. Too often, there are situations where people cannot qualify once under contract and it would have been quickly uncovered during a pre-approval.  This represents wasted time for the realtor, buyer, seller and all involved.

Lesson learned? Pay attention to your credit year-round, and understand that what you do today impacts how your credit works for you in critical purchase moments like home buying.
