Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.

Where the public record itself is wrong, we show the lender's correction beside it and tell you how to ask the agency to fix the source. Correction form.
