FICO Score

The FICO® Score is the most widely used credit score in U.S. mortgage loan underwriting. This 3-digit number, ranging from 300 to 850, is calculated by a mathematical equation that evaluates many types of information that are on your credit report. A higher FICO® Score represents a lower credit risk, which typically equates to better loan terms.
