I didn't realize that creditkarma.com allows you to get a score for free. Whilst this isn't the same score that you'll get from other sites, i don't believe any 2 lenders or sites will give you the same score, as it depends on the algorithms they use which will all be different. Having said this, I think it is relevant to get a score, any score, and to monitor it over time to see if it moves up or down, and that offers real value. Just depends on whether you go the free score, or go with a paid one. You’ve certainly spent some time and effort putting together this post, good work.
