Now's the time to check your credit score
You normally tell your clients to check their credit scores, right? Well, now's the time for you to do that, too.
With applications for loan options, agents' personal information is being sent to many different places, increasing the chances of it ending up in the wrong place.
As we've noted in this previous article, cybercriminals are taking advantage of the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, so it's important to make sure reporting by credit reporting agencies is accurate to ensure you're not a victim of identity fraud.
To help combat the potential for foul play, the...

Free or discounted association resources for REALTORS®
