   I have heard from several sources that when applying for a mortgage that lenders only look at the past 3 years of your credit history. Is there any truth to this?
   
   Thanks

   The meat and potatoes is 24 months but they will look back as far as 4 years for certain programs. If you look good for 24 months though you are doing o.k.
