My Fico - Loan Calculators, etc.
Lots of great information on this website, especially the different calculators. When it comes time to check your credit, we recommend that you NOT use their link, however, unless you want to pay for credit monitoring services. Look for our link to AnnualCreditReport.com (the official site) |
Official Credit Check Website
The FSBO world is riddled with "Get Your Free Credit Report Here" links, but all they are is a link to a paid credit monitoring service. There is only one website set up by all three credit reporting bureaus that the federal government helped to establish, and that's right here. No gimmicks. |
