How to Pull a Credit Report in Maxwell
Step by Step Instructions:
- Open up the Loan File from your dashboard by clicking on your borrower’s name.
- On the Tasks tab, click the blue “Add Task” button and select “Pull Credit Reports", you will be able to issue a hard-pull or re-issue an existing report here.
- Select your CRA provider that you have configured in your integrations tab, this will auto-populate your credentials behind the scenes. If you don’t see your credit provider listed, you can add them to your integrations page
- If your borrower's file has a completed loan application their information will be auto populated. If the borrower has not completed the application you can manually complete the required fields.
- A tri-merge pull from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion is the default order. If you would like to pull a single-agency credit report, uncheck the agency’s you would like to exclude.
- You must indicate that you have consent from the borrowers before pulling a report.
- Click "Pull Credit" and the task will be added to your task list and run in the background.
- With a successful credit pull, you will then be redirected to the Task tab. The credit report can take a few minutes to come back, so it may show as “In Progress” until the report is returned. Once returned you can find the report under the completed tasks.
Note: The credit report PDF that is returned will have a report number that you can use to reissue the credit report in your LOS.
