I am told that with a higher credit score I can get a better interest rate on a mortgage. If this true then by how much. I am looking into a FHA loan.

what's annoying about all these is that i spend plenty of time coming up with a reasonable answer to what appears to be a reasonable question coming from someone with a legitimate situation. when i find out that these queries are just more of the "phantom" variety - from anonymous sources who then also pretend to be expert in all areas, it really rankles me.

dolly, please refrain from trying to insult our collective intelligence.
