Credit assessment
Your credit is calculated as 'Good', 'Fair' or 'Needs
Improvement'. A good credit assessment means you should be able to
qualify, within the limits of your income, for most loans. You are
also much more likely to receive the best interest rates available.
If your credit is fair, you will probably not have trouble
qualifying for a loan, but you may not receive the best available
interest rate. If your credit rating needs improvement, you may
have issues that could limit your ability to qualify for many
loans.
