Question : Why does my mortgage companies keep selling my mortgage again and again. How will this affect credit score?
Companies keep selling my mortgage over and over again. Its a fixed rate mortgage and i have had it since 2004. We started with HSBC and as of now the mortgage has been sold 4 times to 4 different companies. Should i be alarmed? I plan on moving in the next year, is there anything i should do to protect my self? Thanks
