June is all about housing at America Saves, and our newest ​Think Like a Saver​ episode discusses something that plays an important role whether you’re preparing to rent your next apartment or buy your first home: your credit.

We’re joined by Jenelle Dito from ​FICO® ​to help you better understand credit and how it can impact your housing goals. Some questions we cover include:

  • What should you be paying attention to when it comes to your credit score?
