| Even if you're sure you have excellent credit, it's wise to double-check at the outset. Straightening out any errors or disputed items now will avoid troublesome holdups down the road when you're waiting for mortgage approval. Credit bureaus are required to help you straighten things out in a reasonable time (usually 30 days). See our Credit Center for information on disputing errors on your credit report. |
