Hi Cliff.
I am buying my first home and I met my first mortgage banker today and she advise me that if I let other bankers to check my credit report then my score can go down each time they inquire. However you said here that "When shopping for a mortgage the window for applying is 14 days from the first inquiry".
I am relieved to know this and thank you, and I just want to know how the credit system of FICO know that there are numerous inquiries for the mortgage shopping?

The score looks reasonably ok to me. For line of credit, it depends upon the on your creditworthiness (your income, credit rating, etc.) and the amount of your outstanding debt, etc.

Hi, Ricco

Now adays many people use credit lines to borrow against the equity, and even now lenders are also offering in a variety of ways. The best part is you will find most loans with variable interest rates.

But as I always say, no one loan is right for every homeowner. The key is to to contact different lenders, compare options, and select the home equity credit line best tailored to your needs. But the most important is always review the contract before you sign it.

Hi,

620 is a good score to apply for a loan, however, there are criteria to get a loan. You can do a market survey to get good lenders and make sure that there are no hidden clause. Sometimes you will get lenders who will provide loans with low credit but there are hidden charges. So, I would suggest you to consult with a good lawyer before signing the contract with a lender.
