Overview: What Is Cotality Credco?

Cotality, formerly known as CoreLogic, is a specialty consumer reporting agency focused on the real estate and mortgage lending ecosystem. In 2025, CoreLogic officially rebranded as Cotality, continuing its role as a major provider of property data, analytics, and credit reporting services for:

  • Mortgage lenders
  • Property owners
  • Insurers
  • Home service providers

One of Cotality’s most widely used products is the Credco Credit Report, a foundational tool in consumer credit and mortgage underwriting.

What Is a Credco Credit Report?

A Credco Credit Report is a tri-merge consumer credit report used by lenders to evaluate a borrower’s creditworthiness for:

  • Mortgage loans
  • Auto loans
  • Home equity loans
  • Other consumer credit applications

Lenders rely on Credco reports to:

  • Approve or deny loan applications
  • Determine interest rates and loan pricing
  • Assess overall credit risk

How Widely Used Are Credco Credit Reports?

Credco Credit Reports are deeply embedded in the U.S. lending infrastructure.

According to Cotality, Credco Credit Reports are an industry standard, with:

  • Integration into 60+ major loan origination systems (LOS)
  • Seamless compatibility with top point-of-sale and mortgage platforms

This widespread adoption makes Credco one of the most accepted credit report solutions in real estate finance.

What Makes Credco Different? The Tri-Merge Credit Report

Credco aggregates personal credit data from all three major credit bureaus:

  • Equifax
  • Experian
  • TransUnion

This information is merged into a single consolidated report, commonly referred to as a tri-merge credit report.

Cotality states that it is:

  • The original inventor and patent holder of the tri-merge credit report
  • A pioneer in delivering a comprehensive view of a borrower’s credit history

By combining bureau data into one file, Credco provides lenders with a complete, side-by-side credit profile, reducing blind spots and inconsistencies.

Why Consumers Should Review Their Credco Credit Report

Under federal law, consumers are entitled to request their full consumer disclosure file, including their Credco Credit Report.

Reviewing your Credco credit file allows you to:

  • Verify accuracy across all three credit bureaus
  • Identify errors or outdated information
  • Understand what lenders see when evaluating your loan application
  • Protect yourself from credit reporting mistakes that could affect approval or pricing

Ensuring your Credco report is accurate is especially important before applying for a mortgage, refinance, or major loan.
