Find the information that fits your situation: your first home, a move up or a move down, or a purchase in retirement.

Two outside resources that help you prepare before you apply.

See where your mortgage credit stands before you apply.

MyScoreView.com is a separate service that lets consumers obtain their own TransUnion credit information and FICO Score 4. Please note:

The service uses a consumer-initiated soft credit inquiry, subject to the provider's verified terms.

A single TransUnion score may differ from scores obtained in a mortgage application.

If your TransUnion credit file is frozen, you may need to temporarily lift the freeze.

Any fee is shown on MyScoreView.com. Review it there before you order.

The credit report transaction takes place on MyScoreView.com. This website does not collect credit report information.

Understand the monthly and long-term expenses of owning a home.

The True Cost of Homeownership calculator helps homebuyers see the costs beyond the mortgage payment, both each month and over the life of the loan.

Preparing to buy your first home involves credit, income documentation, down payment planning, and comparing loan programs. Start with these topics.

If you have owned a home before, the questions often center on your existing equity, the timing of a sale and purchase, and the cost of a new loan.

For adults 55 and older, the decision is about how a home fits into retirement income, cash flow, and long-term housing goals. These topics connect to our retirement mortgage planning resources.
