Other Credit Factors Lenders Consider. What Are They?

Lenders look at other credit factors besides your credit score and credit profile before deciding whether to approve your mortgage.

They also consider:

  • Income stability
  • Employment history
  • Monthly debts in relation to your income
  • Savings amount and methods
  • Mortgage type
  • Property type and value
  • Down payment amount
  • Timely payment of rent and utilities

    other-credit-factors These credit factors can also be used to establish that you will be a good risk to lenders if you don’t have credit established. So be sure you take care of these other factors as well.

    This way you can be considered a good credit risk. This is especially important if you are new in the credit arena. Keep in mind that these other credit factors must be in your name (the one applying for the loan) to be considered.
