Before you delve into the world of credit repair and debt relief, you need to do a bit of research. The first step you need to take when attempting to raise your credit score is to find out what your score actually is, and what that score means.

The FACT Act was passed into legislation, which allows all Americans to get one free copy of their credit report every year. This report lists all of your debts and your payment history on those debts.

It will tell you who you owe money to, how much you owe, and your payment history (e.g., whether you pay on time, 30 days late, etc.). All of that information is gathered together and then analyzed.

After the analysis, you are assigned a number depending on what your credit fitness level is. Potential creditors then look at your credit score and decide if you are going to be a good credit risk. This means, for example, are you going to be able to pay back the amount of money you are requesting to borrow.

That’s the basic version. There is much more involved in determining your credit score. However, the important factors at this point are that you know how to read your credit report, and how you can raise that score to enable you to purchase those things you need.

 

That too is a very important point. I said the things you NEED, as opposed to the things you WANT! If you are having difficulty in the area of credit repair or debt relief, you are going to have to be able to define the difference between needs and wants.
