How to Get the Best Mortgage Rate: Improve Your Credit Score


One of the most effective ways to secure a low mortgage rate is by improving your credit score. Lenders use your credit score to assess risk, and the higher your score, the lower the interest rate you’ll qualify for.

Why Your Credit Score Matters

A higher credit score signals to lenders that you are a responsible borrower, reducing their risk and allowing them to offer you better terms.
For example, a borrower with a credit score of 760+ may receive a mortgage rate of 6.5%, while a borrower with a score of 640 may get a rate of 7.5%. On a $1,000,000 loan, this difference could mean paying over $200,000 more in interest over 30 years.

Tips for Improving Your Credit Score

  • Pay Bills on Time – Your payment history makes up 35% of your credit score. Set up automatic payments to avoid late payments.

  • Lower Credit Utilization – Use less than 30% of your available credit. Paying down credit card balances can quickly boost your score.

  • Avoid Opening Too Many New Accounts – Each new credit inquiry can temporarily lower your score.

  • Check Your Credit Report for Errors – Review your credit report for mistakes and dispute any inaccuracies.

  • Keep Old Accounts Open – The longer your credit history, the better your score.

Final Thoughts

Taking steps to improve your credit score before applying for a mortgage can save you hundreds of thousands of dollars over the life of your loan. By maintaining good financial habits, you can secure the best possible mortgage rate and make homeownership more affordable.
