At some time in your life you will walk into a bank and apply for a loan or mortgage of some kind. If you live in the western world, the bank will invariably check a central credit agency in order to validate your ability to make payments on the loan that you are applying for. Your banker will tell you to relax, this is painless, as he/she reviews your credit score from the central agency. This will be the time when that critical purchase of a home or new car will cause you to silently say, Darn, I wish I knew how to increase my credit score. We have all been there and done that – some of us more times than we can count.
Your Credit Score and Getting A Mortgage
February 18, 2011 by Alexa Cooper · Leave a Comment
Lenders run their business by giving loans and they normally like lending money to people. But to ensure that their business profits, they have to be certain that the borrower is able to pay back the total principal along with the interest. Lenders therefore prefer to give loans to people who can easily pay back their debt. To attract business, they would also offer special terms such as low interest rates on mortgage. To gauge the capacity of a borrower as a good payor, mortgage lenders refer to their credit score and credit history. If a borrower happens to have low credit score, they basically represent higher risk. The lender then has to charge a higher interest rate to protect loss in their business.

The only time mortgage confusion was higher that it is right now is back when sub-prime mortgages were not known to be the cesspool that we now know them to be. The global economic system has been collapsed by people who were confused about mortgages and didn’t know it. Whose fault was it? It was the fault of the sub-prime home buyer. It was the fault of the sub-prime mortgage broker. It was the fault of lazy financial advisors who put their client’s money in asset backed paper that turned out to be worth whatever recycled paper goes for and no more. Of these, the most dangerous and most responsible party, the Federal Reserve Bank, is also the malefactor fingered the least.
