Mortgage companies often grade your loan based on certain credit-related items such as payment history, amount of debt payments, bankruptcies, equity position, and your credit score.
Below is a guide to help you estimate your credit grade. This is only a guide as many companies have exceptions that may result in more strict or more lenient guidelines.

The figures shown here are estimates. When trying to figure your credit grade, keep in mind the following principles:
-
Other Things Being Equal
When your have bad credit, all of the other aspects of the loan need to be in order. Equity, stability, income, documentation and assets play a larger role in the approval decision. -
Worst Case Scenario
When determining your grade, various combinations are allowed, but the worst case will push your grade to a lower credit guide. Late mortgage payments and bankruptcies are the most important. -
Going Once, Going Twice
Credit patterns are very important. A high number of recent inquiries and more than a few outstanding loans may signal a problem. A "willingness to pay" is important, thus late payments in the same time period is better than random late payments as they signal an effort to pay even after falling behind.
