An agreement by the three major credit reporting agencies about the information included in credit reports could result in an increase in credit scores. At MortgageDepot, we want borrowers to understand how this could affect them.

Removing some judgments and liens

Under an agreement reached with state attorneys throughout the country, the bureaus agreed not to include credit information that could be inaccurate. As a result, some people will see fines for traffic tickets, tax liens and some judgments removed from their credit reports.

Effect of credit bureau action

The immediate effect of removal of tax liens and other credit items from credit reports will be an increase in credit scores. This could make some borrowers eligible for loans they might not have previously been able to obtain, which could lead some lenders to increase the cost of financing to cover the higher risk of default they might face.
