How to Read a Credit Report

         

Credit  reports aren't the easiest piece of information to read and it's a  layout that the industry isn't going to revamp any time soon.

 

Luckily, our credit reports are designed to be simple to  review and interpret. We’ve accumulated numerous formats because we  continue to create custom layouts that fit our client’s unique needs  (because every partner is different).

Because each credit report contains a vast amount of data we can  separate sections and customize their order within a report so your  underwriters can make informed lending decisions more efficiently. Our  credit reports can be ordered on Web Credit System or through your LOS.  For our current LOS Integration Status please email info@informativeresearchcompany.com.
