Pre-Qualification Reports from Factual Data
Pre-Qualification can be a cost-effective first step in determining your consumers’ creditworthiness for a mortgage. Not only can Pre-Qualification reports help reduce the downstream expenses associated with more exhaustive credit evaluations — they have no impact on the consumer’s credit score and do not produce trigger leads that alert the competition. Pre-Qualification reports can be ordered with data from any or all three nationwide consumer reporting agencies using the Factual Data Enterprise Platform, as well as many LOS and POS integrations.

What's the Difference Between Pre-Qualification and Pre-Approval?
Pre-Qualification*
With Pre-Qualification, you’ll receive an estimate of where the consumer’s credit stands. This can be helpful in determining if it’s worthwhile to continue to the next step of the application process. No hard credit inquiry is needed, and it has no impact on the consumer's credit score. It does require written instruction from the consumer allowing you to obtain their credit data. This type of report does not initiate trigger leads, making it an ideal tool for protecting your initial lead investment.
Pre-Approval
Pre-approval is a more concrete demonstration of the consumer’s creditworthiness. It does require a hard credit inquiry. With a pre-approval letter in hand, consumers can have more confidence in the notion that an offer of credit will be extended, contingent upon meeting further credit evaluation requirements.
*Factual Data Pre-Qualification reports cannot be used to pre-approve a consumer.
