Five Factors of Credit Scoring
A recent 30-day late can cost you 50-80 points
Paying a collection that is more than 2 years old can hurt your score
Being past due on an account can cost you 50+ points
Derogatory accounts do NOT fall off of your report automatically after 7 years. You must dispute them.
A divorce decree does NOT take precedence over the creditor agreement
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
Payment History – 35%
New debt temporarily decreases the score
Keep balances below 50% at all times to maintain your score
Keep Credit Card Balances below 30% of the limit 3-6 months prior to applying for a home loan
Don’t consolidate debt. Share outstanding debt evenly among your cards
If you go over the limit on your credit card even by $1, it will cause a serious penalty
HELOC’s can be considered revolving debt, not mortgage
Do not close credit cards except in certain circumstances
USE YOUR CREDIT CARDS or they will become unrated in 3 months
Amounts Owed – 30%
