Key Advantages with Soft Pulls

Soft Pull Solutions provides private lenders and brokers with several key benefits that make our services indispensable for the lending process. Here are the top advantages tailored to your industry:

No Impact on Credit Scores
Soft credit pulls allow you to assess a client’s financial profile without affecting their credit score. This means you can pre-qualify borrowers with confidence, knowing you’re not putting their credit at risk.

Avoid Impacting Consumer’s Credit in Any Way
Evaluate credit information without affecting the client’s credit score or triggering any negative impacts.

Full Credit Report + FICO® Score
Gain access to a comprehensive credit report and FICO® Score, ensuring you have the data needed to evaluate borrower eligibility accurately and efficiently.

Save 40% or more on Credit Reporting Costs
Soft pulls are significantly more cost-effective than hard pulls, allowing you to allocate resources more effectively while maintaining high-quality credit insights.

No Social Security Number Required
With just a name and address, you can perform a soft credit pull. This simplifies the process and reduces friction for both you and your clients.

Avoid Trigger Leads
Because soft pulls do not place a hard inquiry on a client’s credit report, your competitors won’t be notified that your client is seeking a loan, protecting your leads from poaching.

Streamlined Pre-Qualification
Pre-qualify borrowers instantly and identify credit-qualified prospects, helping you focus your time and efforts on leads most likely to close.
