Knowing what your credit score is and what is used to develop that score is important in each person’s credit history, especially when applying for a loan to purchase a big-ticket item, such as a house or car.
Sarah Hooks, Family Services Director at Habitat for Humanity, will provide the information you need to track and maintain your credit score. Her presentation draws on personal experience as an affiliate loan originator and educator, and ties in with the Habitat for Humanity belief that education is a key component to success in home-ownership and in life. Habitat works to provide easy-to-understand information about credit and underwriting.
