Hi again Barbara:
Be careful of the various "free" credit report websites - most of them will want some $$$s from you to monitor your credit. The only one that I know of, other than the individual agency's own sites is https://www.annualcreditreport.com
You can obtain all 3 reports for absolutely free. HOWEVER, if you want your credit score, then you have to pay for it, even on this site.
As you seem to be very serious about buying a home, I recommend that you contact a good lender or mortgage broker to get you pre-qualified. As part of their service, they will let you have your credit score for free.
Meeting or talking with a mortgage lender is THE #1, most important aspect of buying a home these days. Everything else should come after that.
Hope this helps.
Best of luck, as always,
