Understanding How Your Credit Score is Determined #3: Length of Credit History

Posted: 15 May 2012 04:55 PM PDT

The length of credit history has a bit more weight in your credit score than the previous two types of factors. Whereas the first two categories accounted for only 10 percent of your credit score each, the length of your credit history category is 15 percent of your overall credit score.

Examining the Length of Your Credit History

In looking at the length of your credit history, there are several things that are taken into consideration. These include how long ago your current accounts were opened, the type of accounts you have open and the amount of time that has passed since you had any activity on your account. The longer you have had a particular account open and active, the better it will impact your overall score.

This is because an account with a long history is able to more effectively tell a story about your financial responsibility than an account that has only been opened recently. If you have managed to responsibly handle an account for several years, it will have a positive impact on your overall credit score.

Keeping Your Length of Credit History Score High

Since the length of your credit history will have an impact on your credit score, you want to be sure to keep your longstanding cards in place. While it is certainly bad to have too many credit cards and too many open lines of credit, a subject we will discuss in more detail later in this series, you also need to keep your long credit history in place.

Therefore, if you choose to close out credit accounts in order to reduce your line of credit or because you are trying to get your financial situation under better control, be sure to use some caution regarding the accounts you choose to close. Closing out an account that you have had for several years could potentially result in a negative impact on your credit score.

The same is true when it comes to use of your accounts. If you have had a credit card for several years, but you have not used it for a very long time, it is doing nothing toward helping you improve or maintain a high credit score. Therefore, if you do have credit cards, you should use them on a regular basis in order to keep building your credit rating.

Of course, accumulating debt on your credit cards is also a bad idea. To get the most out of your credit cards while remaining debt-free, consider setting up your bills so they are automatically paid out of your checking account. Not only will this ensure your bills are paid on time, but your credit cards will be used regularly, and you only need to make one monthly payment toward your credit card.


















More Consumers Seeking Loans In Tight Credit Market

Posted: 15 May 2012 04:53 PM PDT

Most banks have tightened lending standards recently, which has resulted in fewer home buyers qualifying for mortgages and lines of credit.  Much of this action is the result of the recent real estate meltdown. 

Although banks are seeing an increased demand from consumers for mortgages, bankers are not loosening their qualification standards to meet demand according to a rent survey by the Federal Reserve.  Many realtors are reporting a built up demand from consumers who are wanting to buy homes, but are unable to satisfy the new credit and lending requirements.

The Federal Reserve survey released in April 2012 indicated that 90 percent of the banker nationwide had not tightened their lending and qualification standards in the last 3 months for prime home buyers.  For Alt-A loans and other interest-only loan product, and loans with limited income verification, the survey indicated that bankers had tightened their credit standards slightly. 

To make sure they were using the same standard to judge changes in the consumer credit markets, the fed asked bankers a series of questions about the chances of issuing mortgages to certain borrowers in 2006 in comparison to today.  The greatest change in the mortgage market is that "no document" loans that require limited or no income verification are almost non-existent or require stellar credit scores.  Many salespeople, realtors, self-employed people and entrepreneurs had used "no document" loans to purchase homes in the past.

Over 61% of all lender said they were less likely to issue credit to a borrower with a credit score of 620 or lower, even with a 10% down payment.  This is a big change from 2006 when consumers could purchase a home with little or no money down with a moderate credit score. 

Now many lenders are looking for credit scores above 750 for traditional loans, and requiring a sizable down payment to boot.  The lending industry has been widely criticized for its loose credit standards that contributed to the recent foreclosure crisis.
