How long does credit repair take?

+

The timeline varies based on your unique situation, but most clients see results within 30-90 days. Factors affecting timeline include:

  • The number and type of negative items on your report
  • How quickly credit bureaus respond (they have 30 days by law)
  • The complexity of your credit situation
  • Your compliance with our recommendations

Complete credit repair typically takes 3-6 months for optimal results.

What can you remove from my credit report?

+

We can challenge any negative item on your credit report, including:

  • Late payments and charge-offs
  • Collections accounts
  • Bankruptcies and foreclosures
  • Judgments and liens
  • Repossessions
  • Inquiries
  • Identity theft items

We challenge inaccurate, unverifiable, or unfair items based on consumer protection laws like the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Is credit repair legal?

+

Yes, credit repair is 100% legal. It's your legal right under federal law (FCRA) to dispute any item on your credit report that is inaccurate, incomplete, unverifiable, or unfair.

We operate in full compliance with:

  • Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)
  • Credit Repair Organizations Act (CROA)
  • Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA)

Our methods are ethical, legal, and proven effective over 25 years.

Understanding Credit

What is a good credit score?

+

Credit scores range from 300-850. Here's the breakdown:

  • 300-579: Poor Credit
  • 580-669: Fair Credit
  • 670-739: Good Credit
  • 740-799: Very Good Credit
  • 800-850: Excellent Credit

For most mortgages, you'll need at least 580 (FHA) or 620 (conventional). For the best interest rates, aim for 740+.

What factors affect my credit score?

+

Your credit score is calculated based on five main factors:

  • Payment History (35%): On-time vs. late payments
  • Credit Utilization (30%): How much credit you're using vs. your limits
  • Length of Credit History (15%): Age of your accounts
  • Credit Mix (10%): Variety of credit types (cards, loans, etc.)
  • New Credit (10%): Recent credit inquiries and new accounts

Will checking my credit hurt my score?

+

No! Checking your own credit is a "soft pull" and does NOT affect your score. You should check your credit reports regularly.

However, when lenders check your credit for loan applications, that's a "hard inquiry" which may temporarily lower your score by a few points.

We provide free credit report pulls and continuous monitoring as part of our service.

How long do negative items stay on my credit report?

+

Different items have different reporting periods:

  • Late Payments: 7 years from the delinquency date
  • Collections: 7 years from original delinquency
  • Charge-offs: 7 years
  • Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: 10 years
  • Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: 7 years
  • Foreclosure: 7 years
  • Hard Inquiries: 2 years

However, we can challenge these items and potentially get them removed earlier if they're inaccurate or unverifiable.
