Should I Hire a Credit Repair Company?

Should I Hire a Credit Repair Company?

Unfortunately, many people who have bad credit don’t even know that hiring a credit repair company is an option. Just as unfortunate is the fact that many people who know that credit repair companies exist, think they are all scams. Many consumers also confuse them with credit counseling services and debt consolidation services; which they are not. Well, I happen to know of some great credit repair companies, so I am here to set the record straight!

You should really only consider hiring a credit repair company if you have multiple collection accounts, charge offs or public records such as judgments, repossessions, foreclosures and bankruptcies. If you only have a few bad accounts on your credit report, you should try contacting the credit bureaus and creditors yourself. You should also work on rebuilding your credit if you don’t have many or any positive accounts reporting.

I would suggest choosing a well-known agency from online, but if you decide to go local, make sure to check with your local Better Business Bureau and state attorney general for any filed complaints. The upfront set up fees should be very minimal. Under the Credit Repair Organizations act, a credit repair company is not permitted to charge before they provide any services. This one of the most important things to consider when hiring a credit repair company because it ensures that you won’t be out a lot of money if they are unable to repair your credit.

Credit repair companies must follow specific guidelines from the Credit Repair Organizations Act. Congress introduced the CROA in 1996 to protect consumers from unfair and deceptive business practices and advertising by credit repair organizations. It’s wise to at least browse over the CROA before hiring a credit repair company.

Unfortunately, there is no magic wand to make all your financial problems disappear, but a good certified credit counselor will always offer solutions. Expect more than one solution, and expect some solutions you don’t like. Your counselor will give you a balanced perspective of what you need to do, how long it will take, and what resources are available to help you along the way. Your counselor will probably discuss bankruptcy, as well as other solutions. The counselor will propose solutions not just in the light of your current situation, but in light of your future needs.

Proven Techniques To Fix Credit Score – Easy Steps That Helps to Fix My Credit Score

Proven Techniques To Fix Credit Score – Easy Steps That Helps to Fix My Credit Score

You might wonder what’s the fastest way to raise my credit score?. The answer is only one – How much do you want to raise it? The proven techniques to fix credit score have laid out some strategy depends on how much you would like to raise your credit score. For example, if you wish to increase your score from 580 to 650 then your strategy will be very different from someone wanting to go from 670 to 725.

Why? Because you starting point is different which requires a different approach. Also, while the removal of negative items from a report will almost always lead to an increase in score, it’s a basic concept at best. Therefore, within this article, we’ll discuss somewhat inside techniques known by very few since this is a limited guide being published by Consumer Publishing Group a.k.a the Credit Secrets Bible.

Among the few insider techniques explained in the guide are:-

ADVANCED CREDIT PROFILING


This is a strategy while not complex, can be taken to very complex levels. Even in its’ most basic form, it’s taken advantage of by very, very few. It involves intentionally building your credit report in a way which creates a “profile” that closely fits the criteria of most lenders (as well as the overall credit scoring system). Again, this is a technique which can be used in a myriad of complex ways, but for simplicity I will explain it in its’ most basic form.

While many consumers will boast when they have 10, 20, 30 or even 50 thousand dollars worth of credit cards on their report, many of these same people do NOT have even one mortgage, automotive loan or lease, equipment loan or a even a line of credit with a local bank or credit union. These other forms of credit create a much more well rounded credit profile for the consumer. This is achieved by showing greater credit account diversity and experience with multiple types of credit due to the various lines held.

For example. A person with K in credit cards does not represent near the credit experience as a person with the same K along with a mortgage, an automotive loan and an equipment lease. We have clients who have financed vehicles not because they had to (or even wanted to) but because they “needed to” in order to create a credit profile that would position them in the future to secure the lowest possible rate on a mortgage when they applied and needed it.

Subscribing to Affluent or Semi-Affluent Business and Professional Publications and Organizations

More complex forms of Advance Credit Profiling involve one subscribing to affluent or semi-affluent business and professional publications and organizations. These would include magazines, newsletters, trade journals and national associations. The goal is to get ones name into the databases of these publications and organizations.

Why?

The reason is simple – to get on highly targeted lists in order to receive select credit offers.

Marketers of credit offers have found that simply renting names of consumers from the credit bureaus does not provide enough information about the person as a credit risk anymore. Therefore, it is speculated that many will rent a list from the credit bureau and then cross-reference this list against another list they have secured from a consumer source such as an affluent business or professional publication, trade journal or organization.

By crossing the two lists together the marketers find the names contained on both lists. This in turn provides them with one highly refined and targeted list to mail their offer to. This results in shortening the process of securing a new quality account holder thus lower the overall account acquisition cost of new accounts.

When a consumer learns how to intentionally put themselves into these databases to wind up on these refined lists, the credit building process is sped up exponentially. Of course, many would call this “highly speculative” but we have undeniable experience that it works.


DEPOSIT LOAN PROGRAMS:

This is a technique so unbelievable that I myself proclaimed it had to be a scam before researching the facts. It allows the consumer (or business) to have a ,000 to 0,000 loan appear on their credit report as “Paid as Agreed” by way of very creative financing. This method is extremely effective and not within the budget of most (0 to ,500 upfront).

Also, because this technique takes advantage of certain banking laws, I have reason to believe it could be made unavailable at any time if those banking laws were to change. This method can be used with consumer credit files on SSN’s as well as business and corporate credit files done on TIN’s as well as Dunn and Bradstreet.

In the end, all of us need to remember that today our credit score is more important than it has ever been in the history of the credit reporting system. While credit miracles don’t happen overnight, you can create your own credit miracles by applying simple insider strategies consistently over time.
