What is a credit score?
Along with a credit report, lenders will request a credit score (FICO) to help determine whether or not you are eligible for a loan. The score is a credit overview and is weighed by the following:
- 35% payment history
- 30% amounts owed
- 15% length of credit history
- 10% new credit
- 10% types of credit used
- A median credit score (FICO) ranges from 690 to 740, though many loan programs consider scores as low as 580.
