If you are buying a home, can the seller ask for your credit score? You are typically not required to give credit scores to the seller. A pre-approval letter should be sufficient (not the same as a pre-qualification letter). Anyone can ask you for anything. It is up to you if you want to provide it. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that giving someone your credit score gives no real information about who you are. It gives an indication that the higher the score, the better your credit. But a high credit score really doesn’t tell the entire picture of someones credit history. We see no problem with providing this information, but would certainly refuse to give the seller your entire credit report. Check out below to see what sold in Meadowbrook Glens in November 2015:
