Q&A: How can you compare mortgage lenders without having them pull you credit?

Question by rhdtv2002: How can you compare mortgage lenders without having them pull you credit?
I am curious but how can we compare lenders closing cost and rates without them even pulling our credit? This does not make sense without a credit pulled because some of the rates are based on your credit score. So how do you compare?lets say I want to go to BANK#1 on my list to get this info and then go to BANK#2 on my list to compare – are they not going to both pull my credit which is not a good idea

Most of that info is determined by your credit score, among other things.They can check your Fico score (soft inquiry) without actually pulling your full credit history, but for a mortgage I would think they would have to pull a hard inquiry (full history).So I think it would be impossible, or at least not likely, that they would be able to give you enough info so you can compare without them pulling your full history. They may be able to give you a “range” of what your rate and closing costs is likely to be just from your Fico.Edit: Yes they will both pull your credit, but ‘shopping around’ for mortgage and car loans counts as 1 inquiry and doesn’t hurt your credit score much at all.

Question by Tempting: Aren’t these traunches of complex and worthless mortgage loans really just bogus assets used to fool people?
They were worthless stacks of paper to inflate their balance sheets and, thus, qualify to make more loans and investments. They got around the law for required assets with objecting numbing bs. Pure smoke and mirrors. They found a way to get more and more leverage.The banksters are still lying, my friend. It is worse than they say. If carefully audited, these worthless mortgage notes will be determined to be be nearly worthless to completely worthless. Lies, lies and more lies.

Now, for those of you who are standardly employed meaning that you are de salary, your full time hourly. Something where in your situation, lenders most likely just going to ask for a pay or your most last two most recent pay stubs and a job letter. I want to make sure that you are in fact getting the right type of paperwork with all of the information on it that you need, especially for those of you who are in like mom and pop type companies where it’s just you and some other person. Or they don’t have a payroll company doing the payroll for you. Here’s what the lender is going to want to see on a job letter. It’s very important that all of this information is included on it. The first thing it has to be on company letterhead. Now, even if your company doesn’t have a letterhead. You are going to have to make some. Put your logo in there and whatever you need to do but we are going to need some sort of company letterhead that the letter is written on.

Answer by MoneyMatters101.com
Lenders use your impute score to get a quick hint of your credit history, but the information on your actual credit report is what they ultimately use to make a determination as to whether or not you will get the loan that you are applying for and what your interest rate will be.A imputed score is founded on factors such as your history of paid your bills, such as loans, credit cards, and other credit obligations. Public records such as tax liens, bankruptcies, judgments, law suits and collection accounted are also factored into the score.
