I’m not so good with numbers… How do I know if I have a good credit score?
Thankfully, the answer is simple. There are 5 tiers of credit score:
-300-579: Poor.
-580-669: Fair.
-670-739: Good.
-740-799: Very good.
-800-850: Excellent.
But how do I check my credit score?
Easy. Just call your bank and ask for your credit score (this should be free). Alternatively, you can purchase a credit score from any of the major credit bureaus, like Equifax and TransUnion.

People ask us all the time:
Why is my credit score so low?
There could be a number of reasons.
Maybe you’ve been missing payments, maybe you’ve been applying for too many credit cards, or maybe it's not even your fault…
I’ll explain.
It is not uncommon for the credit bureau to include incorrect/misrepresentative information on your credit report.
We all make mistakes right?
Well, in this case these mistakes may prohibit you from buying a car, house, or taking out a loan to start your dream business – Not cool.
If you can't figure out why your credit score is so low, this may be the answer you are looking for. Drop us a question in the comments or give us a call if you’d like more information on how to identify your credit issues :)

Hey wait a second – can’t I just repair my credit score myself?

Glad you asked.

Legally, a credit repair firm can’t do anything for you that you couldn’t do for yourself. So why bother hiring help?

For starters, credit repair comes in many forms depending on your situation. It involves legal and financial expertise, as well as a large commitment of your time.

But where does all this time go?

One of the main aspects of credit repair is disputing inaccurate or false information on your credit report. The first step is to carefully review your credit report in order to identify the problem areas – then one must file a number of disputes with the credit bureau.

But of course, it doesn’t end there – it is necessary to consistently follow up with the credit bureau just to make sure that they are actually looking into your claim [facepalm emoji]

If you enjoy constantly calling and waiting on hold during business hours, then by all means do it yourself!

But if you have better things to do, give us a call and we’ll be happy to handle it for you :)

In the dark about how to repair your credit score? Give yourself some credit – it can be complicated!

A positive credit score is based on 5 key factors:

-Consistency of on-time payments
-How much credit you use: one-third or less of your total credit is perfect!
-How long you have been using credit: the longer your history, the better!
-Having fewer credit inquiries received as a result of applying for new credit
-Using many different types of credit, such as credit cards, mortgages and auto loans

Stay on top of these 5 factors and you’ll see results in no time!
