More than 9 million Americans may see “substantial declines” in their FICO scores as delinquent student loans begin showing up on credit reports for the first time since the pandemic, according to a new report by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

If you are shopping for a home and have been pre-approved prior to a student loan delinquency, your pre-approval may no longer be valid. Your credit score is a vital aspect of the home financing process, which is why it’s important to take steps to ensure your student loan payments are current and sustainable.

Your student loans don’t have to become a barrier to homeownership. If you have missed student loan payments, check your credit reports regularly for free at AnnualCreditReport.com

What do applying for a mortgage, financing a new car, and opening a new credit card have in common? An influx of pre-approved offers and solicitations from creditors, lenders, and insurance companies using data provided by the credit bureaus.

Here are three easy ways to opt-out of unwanted solicitations and prevent the credit bureaus from selling your information.

When you apply for a mortgage loan, or any type of loan, a credit report is pulled, and this action triggers an inquiry. The credit bureaus are made aware that you are searching for a loan and may notify other lenders who subscribe to these alerts.

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Brian Bloete by Edward W - Brian went above and beyond. On my first offer we needed to make the offer late Sunday evening and Brian was able to help us get the numbers to make that offer. Brian was fast in responses to any questions (and I had a lot of them) whether by email, text or on the phone. Brian also had a coworker Lissett that was equally awesome in making sure the final stages of the paperwork and if any items that needed to be updated were taken care of. They both deserve the 10 out 10 rating I gave.

The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) recently updated its guidelines to include income from boarders or significant others who share your housing expenses.

These updates aim to expand potential income sources, reduce rental history requirements to 12 months, and increase borrower’s home buying power.
