Here is a comment on my Experian credit report for FICO where I show "hurting" for NOT having mortgage!!!!
PAYING OFF YOUR MORTGAGE LOAN "HURTS" YOUR FICO SCORE PER EXPERIAN
Lack of recent non-mortgage loan information
HURTING
- You have a lack of recent activity from a non-mortgage installment loan.
- Your credit report shows a $0 balance on your non-mortgage loans (such as auto or student loans) or a lack of sufficient recent information about your loans. Having a non-mortgage installment loan with no missed payments and a low balance along with other types of credit demonstrates that a person is able to manage a variety of credit types. Having a 0% installment loan balance to loan amount ratio is considered slightly more risky than having a low installment loan ratio.
