Rapid Rescore allows mortgage applicants the opportunity to update the content of their credit reports – typically within 3 business days. Once the content of the reports is updated, new scores are generated immediately. This saves the amount of time it would normally take for the creditors to update the credit bureaus; often as long as 60 days.
