TRANS UNION FAIR ISAAC SCORE SUMMARY= 676

Credit Reports Continued

 

Fair Isaac (FICA or FICO) is above the applicants credit report and trade information, and is the over all rating of the applicants’ credit as determined by many financial factors devised by the Fair Isaac Corporation. Generally scores exceeding 630 to 640 are considered by banks as worthy of loans. The lowest scores are in the low 400's and the highest scores close to 850 (Very few). Scores between 600 and 700 are very common and considered very good. Most tenant applicants will fall between these scores (550 and 675). Scores below 575 are considered a risk, and usually warrant further documentation or higher security deposits if the landlord proceeds.
