Ways to Improve Your Credit A big factor in determining if you´ll qualify for a loan and what loan terms you´ll be able to qualify for is your credit scores along with your overall income and debt.
1. Check for and correct errors in your credit report.
2. Pay down credit card bills.
3. Don´t charge your credit cards to the maximum limit.
5. Don´t purchase big-ticket items for your new home on credit cards until after the closing is approved.
6. Don´t open new credit card accounts before applying for a mortgage. 7. Shop for mortgage rates all at once.
8. Avoid finance companies.
