How Your Total Credit Lines Affects Your Mortgage
(presented by www.refinance-refinance.net - mortgage lenders)

Basics
Your total number of credit lines is evaluated by:
- type of credit line
- number od credit lines
Type of Credit Line
Your credit lines come in several types, including:
- credit cards
- car loans
- mortgages
- students loans
- others
Your credit cards are revolving debt that you can pay off and incur again.
Your mortgage credit line is a critical component. This credit line is the one lenders will view most critically. Being late on a mortgage payment can be a red flag to mortgage lenders. It is still possible to refinance for borrowers, sometimes even after a borrower has been late by 60 days or more.
Late payments on your student loans can show up on your credit report and affect your credit score.
Number of Credit Lines
Too many credit lines may be an issue for mortgage lenders.
If you have lots of new credit cards with no balances a lender may be worried that you will run up large balances on them. This is a risk they need to measure when deciding about whether to approve your mortgage or not.
Lenders will also look at your mortgage lines and reconcile it to the properties you own.
Many credit lines with large outstanding balances are also a financial factor that lenders will look for.
A lender will evaluate a potential debt consolidation loan by seeing if they can pay off some or all of the outstanding consumer credit debt.
