Basically, my mom is going to be looking into buying a house soon. She wants to check her credit score. Which score is the actual one necessary to check? I’ve seen FICO and all types of other general “credit scores” that could be checked.
Which does a mortgage company look for, and just how many different “types” of credit scores are there? I know that a credit score is a summary of the creditworthiness based on one or up to all three of your credit reports. But where is the safest, cheapest and most reliable place to buy a credit score online?
