What is the FICO® Score Mortgage Simulator?
The FICO® Score Mortgage Simulator is the only credit simulation tool built using the same algorithms that power the FICO® Scores most commonly used in mortgage underwriting. It enables lenders to test “what-if” scenarios and forecast how actions like paying down debt or removing collections may affect a borrower’s score.
Common simulation scenarios include:
-
Paying down or paying off balances
-
Deleting third-party collections
-
Upgrading derogatory tradelines to “paid”
-
Improving delinquent accounts
-
Removing account disputes
-
Simulating the passage of time
Upcoming features will support additional scenarios, such as removing historical delinquencies and adjusting account balances—expanding the insights available to your team and your borrowers.
