Hey all! Just checking in to see of any personal loans that do NOT report to CR -- I have a few already reporting, all current - but I am looking to buy a condo next month as well and do not want a new loan reporting too to lower score.
Are there any personal loans or LOC out there that do not report to the Credit Bureaus? Any infromation would be appreicated !
Not that I know of. Other than Pay Pal, that used(and might still be) a hidden tradeline. Your only option might be for Bussiness credit, if you don't want an account reporting to personal. After all, it wouldn't really be a good Credit product if it didn't report. Defeats the purpose IMO.
Janus,
Thank you but I do not own a business and am unsure if one can have a credit card if one doesnt own a business !
Although matybe some do
You can get a loan from a loan shark, they usually don't report to credit bureaus, even if you default.
LOL, i'm obviously joking, please don't report my comment as inappropriate or take a loan from a loan shark

IMHO, if your goal is to buy a condo, you shouldn’t take out any new credit 12 months prior to mortgage application whether it shows on the CR or not. Loan Officers ask for 2-3 mos of all bank statements and they specifically look at it with eagle eyes for out-of-the-ordinary money deposited. Also, they look for any monthly payments to anything that’s not on your report and you will be asked about it.
Just my 2cents.

For years I've pulled about $500 per month out in cash to hold in a Safe, in just in case. So when I redeposit that Money back in periodically, does that mean "out of the ordinary" deposit? Since they only go back 2-3 months, and don't take into account the last 2 years.
And what if you transfer Money to a different Bank's Savings/IRA? That's not on my CR. I assume that I would also have to present those statements?

When I was a realtor, here are some questions LO asked:
One person had an IRS installment agreement and did not tell LO. When the LO saw $300 being paid to IRS monthly that amount had to be included in DTI and LO asked for copy of installment agreement.
When another person had $4K deposited into her checking account, she told LO money was from her mom who was paying back a loan. LO wanted mom’s bank statement to verify funds were really coming from mom and not a loan.
In your case, I suggest not having any funds going in or out 2-3 prior to applying for a mortgage that can’t be explained and you’ll be good to go.
