I still recommend buying Equifax because its mortgage-related revenue is growing quickly and its free cash flow is getting better. In the third quarter of 2024, EFX reported strong revenue growth, mainly from a rise in mortgage solutions and increased international sales. Although there are still some difficulties with non-mortgage revenue, I believe these will improve as the economy gets better, which will help future growth.
