Credit Score
Your FICO credit score is a number computed by Fair Isaac that determines your credit worthiness. It ranges from 500 to 850, and can have a significant impact on the mortgage rate you can get or your ability to get a credit line (via a credit card or other type of loan). Your score is primarily based on credit report information, typically sourced from the three major credit bureaus. The first link is where you can get a free credit report (it doesn’t include your credit score) from each of the three major credit bureaus.
