I was approved for a principal reducing loan modification at end of 2017 which went into effect February 2018.
Since then I have on time religiously and my credit scores have gone up.
I'd like to do some home improvements.
Has anyone gotten approved for a heloc after a mod?
Home values are good in my neighborhood and my tax assessment shows a large increase in my home's value.
What does your credit report look like, how is that loan reporting and what are your Mortgage Fico Scores (all parties in the loan) that is what really matters?

I applied for HELOC through US Bank. Looks like they go by FICO 8 not mortgage scores.
Thanks for replying. I had to log in with my new sign in to look at myFico credit reports and scores so my answers are in the thread.
This is my mortgage info and what's on my credit report as well as my current FICO 8 and mortgage scores.
