What are the three types of credit reports?

• A. In file report - one repository; Tri merged - all three repositories on one report; Factual data report (RMCR)
• B. In-file report; Dual-merged report; Summary RMCR
• C. Single repository report; Triple-merged report; RMDR (Risk Data Report)
• D. In-file report; Multi-merged report; RMCR (Risk Monitoring Credit Report)

Answer: (A)

The question tests knowledge of the three formats used to present a borrower’s credit information for mortgage lending. The standard options are: an in-file report, which contains data from a single credit bureau only; a tri-merged report, which combines data from all three major bureaus into one consolidated view; and a factual data report, commonly known as the RMCR (Residential Mortgage Credit Report), which is a standardized, mortgage-specific report often produced by vendors to present validated credit information in a uniform format. The in-file report provides bureau-specific details, the tri-merged report offers a more complete picture by merging three sources, and the RMCR delivers a consistent, lender-focused presentation of the borrower’s credit history. This trio—In-file report, Tri-merged report, and Factual data report (RMCR)—is why the correct answer lists those exact types.
