Best Answer

Some lenders will charge a higher interest rate to someone with a low fico score or "bruised credit". They are not necessarily "predator lenders" but must take a higher risk than the bank. I am assuming that you are referring to real estate lending. There are private lenders, institutional lenders, mortgage brokers, and mortgage bankers. I would suggest you check with a member of NAMB. National Association of Mortgage Brokers. They are licensed in each State they operate in and also uphold their standards to the Mortgage Broker Code of Ethics. They are licensed and bonded.

As far as consumer credit, auto loans, credit cards & payday loans, I am not qualified to answer
