New Credit Score Opens Door to ‘Credit Invisibles’ New score opens door to those with no credit records, or limited credit histories

B

right borrowers know that a higher credit score, an indication of creditworthiness, can help them qualify for more preferred loans and lower interest rates.

Now, Fair Isaac Corp. (FICO), the company responsible for creating your FICO score, the credit score most valued and used by lenders, offers a new scoring program. FICO XD factors in alternative forms of data in order to qualify more consumers for credit.

Used by 9 out of 10 lenders, FICO gathers data from traditional credit bureaus like the big three consumer reporting agencies – Experian, TransUnion and Equifax – and assigns a score between 300 and 850.

However, some 26 million consumers are “credit invisible,” meaning they have no credit records, according to CFPB. An additional 19 million had credit records that have been treated as unscorable.

FICO XD, introduced last year, uses non-conventional data, such as property data and telecom payment histories, to fill in the gaps for consumers who may 4

be slow to adapt the new model because they have their own legacy assessment systems in place, he said.

FICO XD is not the only alternative credit rating product. VantageScore (backed by Experian, Equifax and Transunion), Experian’s Extended View Score, PRBC credit score and others compete with FICO. In addition, the nation’s largest morgage loan holders, FHA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, all allow mortgage approvals for non-traditional credit reports, “although each has separate criteria,” notes Kevin Haney, president of A.S.K. Benefit Solutions, an insurance provider in East Brunswick, New Jersey.

How, and even if, credit scores are have insufficient credit histories to generate calculated for lending decisions is under a traditional FICO score. The result? An scrutiny by legislators. If passed, the estimated 15 million formerly unscorable Credit Score Competiton Act of 2015 (HR borrowers can now be scored via alternative 4211) now before Congress would enable data.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to update “We’ve found that over one-third of these their requirements so that lenders could newly scored consumers now have scores consider alternative credit scoring models over 620, which is a common threshold rather than relying solely on FICO. for lenders,” says Joanne Gaskin, senior director of scores and analytics for San Meanwhile, to improve your Jose, California-based FICO. traditional FICO score, manage your The pilot program is geared toward credit wisely: fast-tracking credit card approvals and • Pay all bills on time not mortgages.

YOUNG BUYERS SHAPE HOME TRENDS

Y

oung, first-time homebuyers may account for the lowest share of home sales in almost three decades, but their tastes and preferences are top of mind with those who build homes.

The America Institute of Architects compiled a list of “10 Major Residential Design Trends for the Next 10 Years.”

And, Pardee Homes also conducted research on home features that lure millennials, 25 to 34.

Both studies find that defined rooms, such as a formal dining room or walledoff kitchen, are relics. In demand: open floor plans and flexible rooms that can be easily remodeled as a family’s desires and needs change.

Practicality is often at the heart of millennial style choices, notes

Jamie Haley of Pardee Homes. “New homeowners can maximize their financial investment by increasing the longevity of the home’s lifespan,” she notes.

This rings true to Cleveland area agent Mike Ferrante of Century 21 HomeStar, who says that new town homes that boast open floor plans, with only the bedrooms and bathrooms walled off, are popular with young buyers.

But in Cleveland as in most other areas of the country, a big share of the housing stock is decades old. The first remodeling step some young buyers take is to “knock walls out between the kitchen and dining rooms,” says Ferrante.

Sellers with an a old-style home can consult an engineer to determine which walls can be deconstructed and point them out to potential buyers, he notes.

RE-Weekly.com

But it’s usually not cost-effective for a seller to make the change simply to entice buyers. “You’d be spending $10,000 to get back $5,000” in higher sale price, Ferrante says.

Simple, de-cluttered décor is the best bet to evoke an open effect, he adds.

Older homes are often set in urban or close-in suburbs that appeal to young buyers.

“When they have children, millennials go to the suburbs, but they are less interested in a McMansion 30 or 40 miles away from downtown,” says Kermit Baker, AIA chief economist.

allowable debt is $240,000. Now imagine that you have a $200,000 mortgage balance. Subtract $200,000 from $240,000 and the result is $40,000 – the amount a lender might make available to you in the form of a bridge loan.

How much will a bridge loan cost? Ask about the interest rate, up-front costs including points, origination fees and prepayment penalties. Ask about required monthly payments. Be aware of risks. What happens if your home does not sell in 12 months?

Is there an alternative? If you have a home equity line of credit in place before the home is listed you might be able to borrow against that to buy a replacement property. A personal loan could be an option.

As always, be sure to shop around and compare terms.
