If you are thinking of buying a home, then one of the most important pieces of information to know is your credit score. A better score will allow you to qualify for a larger loan, as well as grant you access to better interest rates. The result is that a credit score increase could end up saving you thousands of dollars in interest payments over the course of your mortgage, regardless of if it is a new loan or an old one being refinanced! Thankfully, millions of American consumers have seen significant bumps in their score over the course of the last year as the major credit reporting agencies introduced new regulations in how they calculate credit scores. Keep reading to learn why you might want to double-check your score if you haven't done so in a while!
Have you been asked by someone to co-sign on their loan? Before saying yes, even if it is a close relative, you should be aware of the many potential consequences to your own financial situation which could result from the decision. Here are some facts that you should consider:
► As a co-signer, you are essentially taking the loan out yourself. You share in all the responsibilities that go along with the loan. The borrower couldn't get the loan without your "guarantee", so essentially the lender cares more about you than the other borrower. It directly affects your credit and your ability to qualify for your own loans during the period that the loan is outstanding.

My agent went above and beyond, both professionally and personally; the relationship didn't end once the papers were signed! She was able to enlist the help of her peers to assist in unloading our moving truck when our movers fail to show up.

My agent is knowledgeable, resourceful, and fast acting. She made my first time home buying experience a pleasurable one. She helped me with everything, from what to look for, ideas for upgrades, and was very honest when I asked her opinion.

In fact, when it was time to select a realtor for a personal real estate matter, she was the only realtor I considered.
