Soft Credit Pulls

A soft credit pull can be run directly from the soft credit pipeline or inside a loan file under the Quick or full app tab.

Make sure that this feature is activated. To activate the soft credit pull you need to:

1. Log in to your LendingWise account.

2. Go to Loan Origination > Soft Credit Pulls (page heading Credit Screening). If it isn't active yet, click "Activate Now". Make sure to first accept terms to activate soft credit pulls.


3. You will be asked to log in to your Acqualify account. Kindly create an account if you don't have one yet.

 

 

Once it's on, Soft Credit Pulls shows in the Loan Origination menu. LendingWise's only setting on that page is Score Threshold (click Update to save it). The rest of the page is Acqualify's panel, with + New Prospect, Quick Entry Link, Self Entry Link and Add by CSV. + New Prospect has Run credit check ticked by default, so Submit runs a pull; untick it to just add a prospect. A soft credit pull can be run directly from the soft credit pipeline or inside a loan file under the Quick or full app tab. Each user (back office, branch, loan officer, or broker) needs permission to use soft credit pulls. For back office users, turn on "Allow To View Credit Screen?" on their profile. 

 

FYI: You can only run the soft credit every 30 days. So if you try to resubmit the report, you will be prompted with an error.

Verify a manager has first enabled the feature on the account, then all other back-office users will have access to the feature.

Please verify the correct address on the present property address borrower, not on a previous or similar.
Which credit score does Acqualify use?
 
We use a VantageScore model which is typically within 20-40 points of the FICO score. We recommend setting your Acqualify threshold 40 points below your FICO minimum so that you can safely exclude ineligible prospects while not losing qualified leads.

It will only display one score as shown in the images above in this article.

Do you sell or share leads between partners?
 
We do not sell or share leads. Our business model relies on us fixing the credit of your leads and then sending them back to you to close the loan.
