I just got my yearly reminder to go check my credit report and make sure everything is correct. This is a step that needs to be done prior to applying for a mortgage.
You always want to make sure the errors are corrected and you know exactly what should and should not be on that credit report. Having your finances in line is a very important first step in the buying process.
So go and make sure your credit report is correct, you never know when you might find that next dream home!
