How to Get Your Credit Report
Lenders need to see your credit profile before pre-qualifying you. Choose any option below — free options are listed first.
AnnualCreditReport.com
The official U.S. government-authorized site. Gives you full reports from all 3 bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) at no cost. No FICO score included — but lenders can use the report itself. Download as PDF and upload below.
Credit Karma
Free TransUnion and Equifax credit reports with VantageScore 3.0 scores. Widely accepted by lenders as a starting point. Take a screenshot of your scores page and upload it below.
Benetrends Financial — Free Pre-Qual
One of Brian's preferred franchise lenders. Their free pre-qualification tool runs a soft credit pull (no impact to your score) and tells you which funding structures you qualify for — ROBS, SBA, or portfolio loans. You can share the result directly with Brian.
MyFICO.com — Tri-Bureau FICO Report
The most lender-recognized report. Includes FICO scores from all 3 bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) in a single PDF. Costs ~$39.95. If you want the strongest possible application, this is the preferred option.
Any of these options is acceptable. If you already have a recent credit report (within 90 days), you can upload it directly below without getting a new one.
Most recent filed federal return (Form 1040 + all schedules). PDF preferred.
Second most recent filed federal return (Form 1040 + all schedules). PDF preferred.
Tri-bureau FICO report from myfico.com. PDF or screenshot accepted.
