After many years of pre-qualifying home buyers, a question that comes up is how to order credit scores? 

I have found that if your order your credit score from each credit bureau (Experian,Equifax and TransUnion) you most likely will get the most accurate credit score from that particular credit bureau.  But who has time to go to each credit bureau when you have other options to order all 3 at the same time from people like TrueCredit.com and freecreditreport.com. 

I had a buyer who came with their own lender.  This particular lender had the buyer order their credit scores from TrueCredit.com.  All the credit scores (except TransUnion) was not up to date and incorrect.  The buyer contacted me a told me the situation.  I told her in my experience MYFICO.com was the most accurate site to order your 3 personal credit scores from, which she did.  TrueCredit.com scores turned out to be off by 50-60 points. 

So in conclusion,if you want your most accurate credit scores order them from www.myfico.com.  These are the credit scores your lender will most likely see.

Sherida - thanks!  I've tried finding my own credit scores, but ended up just getting a credit report.  I'll try this... just curious and know how important these scores are to purchasing my next home.
