Importance of Maintaining Good Credit Score - Visual Representation

Share this

Preparing for homeownership requires you to get your credit and finances in order and understand the buying process before you even start searching for the actual house or condo.

Many Credit Sesame members sign up for our free service because they want to prepare for their first big purchase — a home. It’s important to understand what factors are involved, and how bad credit could potentially drive up the cost of your home through higher interest rates, or even prevent you from getting approved for a mortgage in the first place.

If it’s your first home and you haven’t educated yourself on what the process entails, it’s time to get started so you don’t waste time and money.

Read through Credit Sesame’s mortgage e-book that shows how you can get your credit ready for a mortgage.

If you don’t know what your credit is or haven’t checked it in a while, sign up for Credit Sesame and find out, it’s free!
