A snapshot of your credit!

A snapshot of your credit!

It is very important to understand that when a lender pulls your credit profile they are just seeing a view of your credit at that exact moment.  This does not mean that they are seeing what is currently reflected on your credit status.  Each creditor pays the bureaus a fee to update information at the time they make the change.  Many creditors do not update the reports the moment you pay down a balance, close or open an account, have a late payment, or convince your creditor to remove a negative mark due to their own mistake.  It is essential to get proof of all changes to your report in writing prior to applying for a loan (especially negative info).  If you find the report is not a current reflection of your status you can supply the lender with proof and they can do a Rapid Re-score (discussed in prior article). Always check your credit 6 months prior to applying for a loan to make sure it is the best it can be.
