A Good Credit Score is 700 and Above.
December 23rd, 2011 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresWho Has An 850 Credit Score And How Do You Get One?
November 23rd, 2011 by admin | 25 Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresCredit scores, on the scale assigned by FICO, range from 300 to 850. Who has an 850 credit score and what canyou do to get one? Less than 1 percent of the population has a credit score above 800, so it’s very unlikely you will have an 850 credit score. However, if your credit score is above 720, you will probably still receive the best rates.

Raise Credit Score – Bloomberg: Your Money
October 21st, 2011 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresIs it possible to get a FICO score for free? (and how to repair your credit report)
September 27th, 2011 by admin | 8 Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresJean Chatzky is correct, you cannot get your FICO score–the score that is used by lenders–for free. However, if you want an approximation of that score, there are a few companies that will provide them for free. But keep in mind, that each free attempt will in fact add an inquiry to your report which has been known to lower your score. See credit score myths below. And all [except MY FICO] are the credit scores developed by the credit bureaus themselves, Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax, and are not your actual FICO scores. Only the FICO score from myfico.com is used by lenders to determine your credit worthiness. CreditKarma.com: Gives you your TransUnion score. But it is Advertising-supported. E-Loan: Experian score. If you visit their website, be sure to scroll down to “One-Time Credit Snapshots” and “Free Credit Score (Credit Score Only)” Prosper: Experian score. Feel free to ask any credit related questions in the comments section of this video. I’ll be happy to answer them if I can. ALSO, PLEASE FREEZE YOUR CREDIT REPORTS!!!!!! and please go to www.optoutprescreen.com to opt out of all offers of credit and insurance for 5 years. Don’t bother with the permanent opt-out. Credit score myths: Myth: You have only one credit score. You actually have three scores, one from each of the three bureaus (Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax). They use the same “equation” from Fair Isaac Corporation but they each collect their own data, they each have their own slightly …

Understanding Your Credit Score – Bloomberg: Your Money

Your Credit Score – How to Get it, Maintain it, and Not Wreck It
June 28th, 2011 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresMortgagesInVancouver.com The first thing is getting your credit and maintaining your credit. So obviously if you think that credit is the most horrible thing in the world and you want to stay away from it, unfortunately you can’t do that if ever you plan on getting a car or buying a home. You need credit, because that’s how they judge your responsibility when it comes to money and finances, and that’s how they judge you on whether they’re going to get paid back and if you’re a safe bet. So first of all, if you’ve got to get credit, the easiest way is to just go out and get like a 0 credit card. Even if it’s a pay as you go one, just get it so you can start building your credit. Then, secondly, when you get the credit card, you need to make the payments. All right? So there’s a couple of ladies who are very concerned. They’re like, “Oh, I was five days late on my credit card payment. Am I going to get hit?” No. You’re probably OK on that front. Where you need to be concerned is if you go for a full 30 day cycle. So if you miss a payment for a full 30 days, chances are the credit bureau’s caught that and they’re going to ding you for it. Now, the second thing is I see a lot of people with horrible credit who have got horrible credit for a ridiculous reason, and what this reason is is that a lot of credit cards, especially the store credit cards like the Zellers cards and the Canadian Tire and Staples and Brick cards, they actually have annual fees on them. A lot of …

When Should You Pull Your Own Credit Score?
April 1st, 2011 by admin | 1 Comment | Filed in Good Credit ScoresLeahCoss.ca Hi everyone. How are you? It’s Leah Coss with the Mortgage Center. I wanted to go over when you should pull your own credit, how often you should pull it and then, how you actually go about pulling it. So, when should you pull it? Well, in a situation where if you work with me and I asked you, “What do you think your credit is like?” Maybe you had a bankruptcy in the past. Maybe you just know, instinctually, that your credit is not that good, because you missed payments. You had a dispute with tellers and therefore, something is gone to defaulting on a loan or payment, or something like that. If you know that you have that credit, any of those kind of scenarios, I am actually not going to pull your credit. I am going to get you to pull your own. Reason being is if you pull it, it is not going to hurt your credit. If I pull it and your credit is already bad, it is going to hurt your credit. I want to know, “Where do we stand now?” Because if your credit is bad, it doesn’t mean you can’t get into a home. What it means is, you can actually own the home. You can get into a lease to own home though, and we are still going to need to know exactly where your credit is today, to get that sorted out for you. OK. So, if you are in a situation where before going to trying to get a car, before going to trying to get a loan or a line of credit or credit card or mortgage, you’ll want to pull your own credit if you think that there might be something wrong with it, before me …

A Good Credt Score Isn’t Always Enough
March 12th, 2011 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Good Credit ScoresLeahCoss.ca Hi everyone. How are you! It is Leah Coss with the Mortgage Center. Another credit myth for you. If you have a good credit score, that doesn’t necessarily mean you can get a mortgage. Many of you have great credit scores out there. But it doesn’t mean that a bank wants to invest their money with you, reason being is the credit score is just basically a mathematical algorithm that the Credit Bureau has come up with. And what it said is based on the credit that you do have and how long you’ve had that credit for, you have been making the payments on time and you are doing fine, therefore your credit score is good. But if your credit history only goes back six months, one year, a year and a half, that’s not long enough for most banks or lenders. And they want a minimum of two years history. So that’s the first thing. The second thing is if you only have one credit line meaning one credit card or one line of credit or one car loan, or one student loan and just that, that’s not overly impressing the banks. They want to see multiple lines on there to show that you can in fact handle it. They also want to make sure that if you have a credit card for example, and you only have one or two, you [inaudible] over 0. To say that you can manage 0 dollars is again not overly impressing a bank who is about to lend you hundreds of thousands of dollars. So if you have a good credit score and you have been declined, that’s probably the reason. But the good news is it is …
