Homeloan guy said my score was 650, Is that my FICO score?
I applied threw Capital one to get a home loan for the house I have on land contract right now. He said my score was 650 and needed to be 660 to get 100% financing. So would the 650 be my actual FICO score or do they use a different scoring system? I am a member or true credit and it states my score is only 600.....

- Yep, that sounds like your FICO score. There are a few different ways of calculating it, I think. Close a credit card or two and it may pop up 10 points.
- Yeah probably so, thats usually what they target.
- most likely...DON'T close any open accounts you have, it will most likely make your score lower
- Usually mortgage lenders use the middle score from each of the scores provided by the 3 major credit bureaus. It is normally calculated from a formula developed by the Fair Isaacs Company, FICO. So the quick answer is that it was most likely a FICO derivative. There is more info at the site below.
