			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/_/886/1" target="_blank"> <img style="border: 0pt none; margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" title="Credit Repair Magic" src="http://creditrepairmagic.com/images/softwarebox.gif" alt="fix your credit" width="125" height="164" align="left" border="0" /></a>There are many reasons why your credit score might be low; too many credit inquiries, negative late payments, judgments, charge-off accounts, etc. The credit bureaus make you believe that the only thing you can do to improve your credit rating is to wait. Well, that is not true as it is possible to legally remove items from your credit report and improve your credit score. There are several ways to <strong>fix your credit</strong>, and here are the top four methods, starting from the worst to the best.</p>
<p><strong>Credit Repair Services</strong></p>
<p>You have probably seen all the adverts from companies offering <a href="http://www.credit.com/credit_information/credit_help/The-Truth-About-Credit-Repair.jsp" target="blank">credit repair services</a>. After all, it can be tempting to just pay a company to &#8220;do the work for you,&#8221; especially if you have no clue how to go about repairing your credit. However, the services that those credit repair companies, including law firms, use are underhand but you need to know about them.</p>
<p>First, as they charge monthly for their service, they will obviously make more money if they intentionally prolong the process; this is why they often take many months and even years. You could expect to pay about $100 setup fee and up to $80 every month – that works out to over $1000 per year!</p>
<p>The second thing that you need to know is that it is you who will actually end up doing more work than the credit repair company and certainly more than if you did it yourself. On top of the numerous forms that you will have to fill in, the credit repair company obliges you to personally decide which items to dispute and how to dispute them. Also, you will have to regularly send information that the credit bureaus send you to the <a href="http://www.bankrate.com/brm/news/advice/19980720c.asp" target="blank">credit repair company</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Follow Instructions from the Credit Reporting Bureaus</strong></p>
<p>Considering that one out of four credit reports contain mistakes, do you really want to follow the advice from the credit reporting bureaus? Is it in the best interests of the credit bureaus that you have a clean credit report and a high credit score?</p>
<p>If you follow their advice, your credit score will hardly improve, if at all. Remember that the credit bureaus make money by selling the information in your credit history to potential creditors, insurers, landlords, and employers. So, don’t trust their advice if you want to fix your credit.</p>
<p><strong>Do-It-Yourself Credit Repair Programs</strong></p>
<p>These Do-It-Yourself programs are normally in the form of a printed book, an e-book, or an audio program. You can find dozens of these programs, but most of them are out of date. Some of them even offer advice that is impractical or illegal.<br />
However, if you are well organized and you have plenty of free time available, the course of action that these DIY programs describe will work reasonably well in the end.</p>
<p><strong>Credit Repair Software</strong></p>
<p>Finally, there is <a href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/credit-repair-magic-review-featuring-credit-repair-software/" target="blank">credit repair software</a>. There are more than a few companies offering credit repair software although some are a rip-off. However, the better credit repair software products combine the best of all worlds: ease of use, low price, effectiveness, and speedy results.</p>

<p>The best quality credit software programs can cost up to a $1000 or even higher. However, there are perfectly good programs available for just under $100. When you visit the website of a credit repair software vendor, look for a satisfaction money back guarantee and a professional-looking website.</p>
<p>The best credit repair software program for the money is called <a href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/credit-repair-magic-review-featuring-credit-repair-software/" target="blank">Credit Repair Magic</a>. It costs only $97 and it is the fastest and most cost-effective credit repair solution available. So, don&#8217;t waste your time with ineffectual e-books or outrageously overpriced monthly services.</p>
<p align="left"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/_/886/6" target="_blank"> <img src="http://creditrepairmagic.com/images/download2.gif" alt="credit repair software" align="left" border="0" /></a>Download the best credit repair software &#8211; <a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/Credit_Repair_Magic/886/7" target="blank"><strong>Credit Repair Magic</strong></a> and you will soon be enjoying the benefits of a clean credit report and a higher credit score.</p>
<p>Remember, the average credit score is 677 in the USA. If that average American could raise their credit score to 720 then that family could save $421 per month on average on house payments, credit cards, car payments, and other types of credit. That works out to over $100,000 in 20 years! For those that have a score lower than 677, then you will have all the more to gain.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/_/797/1"><br />
<img class="alignleft" style="border: 0pt none; margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" title="TrustedID" src="http://www.tqlkg.com/image-3566700-10581058" alt="Identity Theft Victim" width="120" height="60" border="0" /></a>If you have been a victim of identity theft then you will know that cleaning up the mess takes time, money, and causes stress and anxiety. In fact, some people even admit defeat and just pay off the fraudulent charges that resulted from identity theft as it&#8217;s the only way they can repair their credit rating.</p>
<p>However, there are precise steps that should be taken if you want to limit the damage to your credit history. So, below are six steps you should follow if you have become or believe you are a victim of identity theft.</p>
<p><strong>Step 1: Contact the 3 Major Credit Bureaus</strong></p>
<p>Contact by phone the fraud departments of all three credit bureaus. Explain to them that you are a victim of identity theft and that you want to be personally contacted prior to any new credit being issued in your name.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.equifax.com/home/en_us" target="blank">Equifax</a><br />
Call: 1-800-525-6285<br />
Write to: Equifax Information Services LLC, P.O. Box 105069, Atlanta, GA 30348-5069</p>
<p><a href="http://www.experian.com/" target="blank">Experian</a><br />
Call: 1-888-397-3742<br />
Write to: P.O. Box 2002, Allen, TX 75013</p>
<p><a href="http://www.transunion.com/" target="blank">TransUnion</a><br />
Call: 1-800-680-7289<br />
Write to: P.O. Box 6790, Fullerton, CA 92834</p>
<p>You should insist that they place your account under investigation for identity theft while it remains on your credit report.</p>

<div class="wpbg751">
<script type="text/javascript" class="wpbgSC751">
var wpbgIndex751,wpbgElement; if(!wpbgIndex751) wpbgIndex751 = 0;
var wpbgIF751 = document.createElement("iframe");
wpbgIF751.src = "http://personalfinancesreview.com/wp-content/plugins/wpbanneradgenerator/banner.php?id=751";
wpbgIF751.scrolling = "no";
wpbgIF751.style.width = "600px";wpbgIF751.style.height = "140px";wpbgIF751.style.margin = "0";wpbgIF751.style.padding = "0";
wpbgIF751.style.border = "0";wpbgIF751.style.background = "transparent";

var allElements = document.getElementsByTagName("div");
for(var i = 0,j = 0; (wpbgElement = allElements[i]) != null; i++){
	if(wpbgElement.className == "wpbg751"){
		if(j == wpbgIndex751){
			wpbgElement.style.borderWidth = "0px";
			wpbgElement.style.borderStyle = "solid";
			wpbgElement.style.borderColor = "#000000";
			wpbgElement.style.width = "600px";
			wpbgElement.style.height = "140px";wpbgElement.style.margin = "0 auto";wpbgElement.style.cssFloat = "none";
			break;
		}
		j++;
	}
}

var allElements = document.getElementsByTagName("script");
for(var i = 0,j = 0; (wpbgElement = allElements[i]) != null; i++){
	if(wpbgElement.className == "wpbgSC751"){
		if(j == wpbgIndex751){
			wpbgElement.parentNode.insertBefore(wpbgIF751, wpbgElement);	
			break;
		}
		j++;
	}
}
wpbgIndex751++;
</script>
</div>		
<p><strong>Step 2: Order Your Credit Report</strong></p>
<p>Order your credit reports from all three bureaus so that you can look for accounts that might have been fraudulently opened in your name. You are permitted a free copy of your report from each credit bureau if you are the victim of identity theft.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3: File a Police Report</strong></p>
<p>Without a police report, companies who have wrongly issued credit in your name, will not take you seriously. A police report will protect your legal rights.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4: Contact Your Local Post Office</strong></p>
<p>If someone stole your mail to obtain your information for the purposes of identity theft, then report this fact officially to your local postmaster.</p>
<p><strong>Step 5: Contact the Department of Motor Vehicles and Social Security Administration</strong></p>
<p>If the identity thief is using your driver&#8217;s license number or social security number to commit identity theft, you may have to obtain new numbers from these agencies.</p>
<p><strong>Step 6: Contact Each Company that Approved Credit to the Identity Thief</strong></p>
<p>In this case, communicating by telephone will not protect your rights. Instead, send certified letters and inform them that they correspond with you in writing.</p>
<p><strong>Summary</strong></p>
<p>The above 6 steps will be the first things that you should do after becoming a victim of identity theft. A great way to prevent identity theft is to check out one of the identity theft protection services, like <a href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/identity-theft-protection-services-trustedid-review/"><strong>TrustedID</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Now you might want to do something to repair your damaged credit. So, if you&#8217;re looking to find more information on how to repair your credit, then download the best <a href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/credit-repair-magic-review-featuring-credit-repair-software/"><strong>credit repair software</strong></a> available.</p>
<p>Do not waste time with cheap yet ineffective e-books or ludicrously overpriced monthly credit repair services. The software mentioned above is called <a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/Credit_Repair_Magic/797/7" target="blank"><strong>Credit Repair Magic</strong></a> and it is the fastest and most cost-effective credit repair solution we&#8217;ve ever seen.</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">If d/e = 50% and it equals Total Liabilities divided by Shareholders Equity (S.H.E.)&#8230;it would be 300,000 / x = .50<br />
x= S.H.E = 600,000</p>
<p>Return on Equity = Net Income divided by S.H.E<br />

<h2>Can you help me with debt to equity ratio?</h2>
<p>I am doing homework for my personal finance class and I am stumped on this problem I got wrong:</p>
<p>Suppose John has calculated that the value of all his assets (excluding the value of his home) is $225,000. He has also estimated that the value of all his debts (excluding mortgage) is $100,000. What is John&#8217;s debt to equity ratio?</p>
<p>I did total liabilities/net worth=100,000/225,000=.44</p>
<p>The answer says that it should be .80. Did I do it wrong or is the answer wrong..lol</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">Yes&#8230;It should be 100,000 / 125,000 because Assets = Liabilities + Equity, so if liabilities is 100,000, then equity must be 225,000 &#8211; 100,000. This is the correct answer.</p>

I pay all my bills on time, I&#8217;ve paid down a $27K car loan to $14K in a year and a half, etc. The one thing that might be keeping my credit score from being a perfect A would be the balance that I&#8217;ve accrued on credit cards over time (paid on time, all the time). I know that debt-to-credit limit ratio affects my <a href="http://www.myfico.com/" target="blank">FICO credit score</a>. So I&#8217;m a little concerned about how that will affect my ability to get a mortgage.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m looking to get a mortgage sometime next year. I pay $875/mo. for a 1 bedroom apartment, and although I love my apartment, I hate the idea that I&#8217;m not building any equity. I also hate the idea that I can get a small house mortgage for that price, which would be a much bigger place than my 1 bedroom place. Would my credit card debt hinder me from getting a mortgage at a half decent rate?</p>
<p>Also, any ideas on how to tackle the debt? Should I consider a personal loan to pay off my cards with, at a lower rate?</p>
<p>What effect does credit card debt have on qualifying for mortgage rates? Right now my cards have &gt;50% of the credit limits utilized (but I&#8217;m trying to pay them down). Also, would it be wise for me to get a personal loan to pay off my credit cards with? (or would that have no net effect, since essentially it&#8217;s just shuffling around debt?)</p>
<p>For anyone who&#8217;s wondering: My credit is good. I have a paid-on-time student loan, a paid-on-time car loan (I&#8217;ve been paying it off fairly quickly), a personal loan that I paid off 2yrs early, a few store cards with $0 balances, and 2 bank cards that are &gt;50% utilized (I feel bad about that). I don&#8217;t know what my FICO score is right now, but somewhere around the high 600s I think (could be higher if it weren&#8217;t for the credit card balances).</p>
<p>Usually I do pay off my cards in full each month, but a few months ago I had some emergency expenses to cover and that&#8217;s why I have credit card balances now. I hate owing money&#8230;this is the 1st time in a few years that I have to pay card interest! LOL I hate it.</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">I would be careful about getting a loan to pay off the credit card debt though if you don&#8217;t cut up your cards. You could easily end up with a loan and more credit card debt.</p>
<p>The wisest way to use credit cards is to pay them off IN TOTAL every month. It may take you some time to pay off existing balances, but NEVER put more on your cards than you can pay off that month. (Banks call people like that &#8220;deadbeats&#8221; because they don&#8217;t pay the ridiculous fees that others pay. I&#8217;m proud to be a &#8220;deadbeat.&#8221;)</p>
<p>Banks have standards about how much debt you can carry. Usually, they want the mortgage to be no more than 28% of your income and total debt payments to be no more than 40%.</p>

<h2>Home equity loan denied?</h2>
<p>My wife and I just recently applied for a <a href="http://www.bankrate.com/home-equity.aspx" target="blank">home equity loan</a> but got denied. We need an equity loan for home improvements. Our credit is great, and our home is completely payed off, the reason why we got denied was because of our debt ratio which was the cause of our credit cards and personal loan which we were never late on, we just had to much open. We now just payed off EVERYTHING we owe including the six credit cards and the one personal loan.</p>
<p>My question is do we have to wait a certain amount of time to reapply or can we just apply again now? We really need to do some home repairs as well as make it look nice <img src='http://personalfinancesreview.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Also should we close all six card accounts?</p>

<p class="dtm-content">Don&#8217;t wait, reapply now. Close the cards you&#8217;ve had the shortest length of time, with the highest available balances. Good luck.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Can an Identity Theft Protection Guide Protect You From Identity Thieves?</h2>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/_/705/1"><br />
<img style="margin-left: 8px; margin-right: 8px;" src="http://www.identitytheftdeterrent.com/images/softcover300.jpg" alt="Identity Theft Deterrent Review" width="250" height="250" align="left" border="0" /></a>According to the <a href="http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/idtheft/" target="blank">FTC</a>, the number of cases of identity theft is approaching 10 million cases per year in the United States. Even business people that use the social network Linkedin can be at risk from identity thieves.</p>
<p>Surprisingly, identity theft for children is 50 times more likely than adults. This is because of the fact that millions of children now use <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_console" target="blank">game consoles</a>, like the Sony Playstation, that connect to the Internet and also because kids are inclined to be less careful while using social networks.</p>
<p>So, the risks are greater than ever as more avenues exist for the identity thieves to penetrate our personal identities. That is why many people are looking at different identity theft prevention measures that they can take. These include identity theft protection services that require a monthly fee but there are cheaper alternatives.</p>
<p><strong>Free Identity Theft Protection</strong></p>
<p>There is the possibility of acquiring free identity theft protection without paying those monthly fees. So, here we will be taking a look at one of the identity theft protection guide books that are available in this <strong>Identity Theft Deterrent review</strong>.</p>
<h3>Identity Theft Deterrent</h3>
<p>The identity theft protection guide, <a rel="nofollow" href="http://personalfinancesreview.com/goto/Identity_Theft_Deterrent/705/4" target="blank"><strong>Identity Theft Deterrent</strong></a>, is by <a href="http://www.prlog.org/10753004-news-judge-passes-ruling-preventing-identity-fraud-alerts-being-issued-on-your-behalf.html" target="blank">Joe Santini</a>. He calls his guide a step by step blueprint to identity theft protection and I suppose his description is correct. When you think about the do it yourself approach to identity theft protection you would think that there would be plenty of information available. However, trying to find out all the steps you should take can be quite hard to pin down.</p>
<p>That is why this identity theft protection guide is becoming popular. Many people are now realizing that the Internet is a hodgepodge of information and disinformation. It is much quicker to find a good reliable guide in e-book format that you can download immediately after paying. That is what the Identity Theft Deterrent is; an e-book or should I say several e-books.<br />

<div class="wpbg760">

</div>		
<br />
The first report is the Identity Theft Deterrent e-book. Although some of the advice covered may seem to be obvious, there are always things that we overlook. Like the fact that identity thieves still use the age old tactic of <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/21/magazine/dumpster-diving-for-your-identity.html?pagewanted=all&#038;src=pm" target="blank">dumpster diving</a> to look through your trash for personal data and information. However, did you know that there are possibly seven things thrown in your trash right now that identity thieves could use?</p>
<p>The report goes into every other area where you could be vulnerable and teaches you the techniques that the more sophisticated thieves use, including their most coveted strategies. The report also includes a 10-step identity protection plan that you can follow to stop identity theft from happening to you.</p>
<p><strong>Fraud Alert Setup</strong></p>
<p>The second report will show you exactly how to set up your own <a href="http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/idtheft//consumers/defend.html" target="blank">fraud alert</a>. They will even send you an e-mail to remind you when to reset your fraud alert every 90 days. The report will also tell you how to claim your free credit report and how to remove yourself from junk mailing lists. These are some of the things that those identity theft protection companies will charge you monthly for.</p>
<p><strong>Summary of Identity Theft Deterrent Review</strong></p>
<p>There is no doubt that the information in this guide is priceless as it will save you over $100 a year in identity theft protection companies. You should be able to use this information to make yourself safe from 99.9% of identity thieves – however, it is a guide that will tell you what to do but you then have to make the effort of implementing every step in the guide yourself.</p>
<p>It is worth pointing out that the Identity Theft Deterrent is an e-book that is sold through Clickbank. You are protected by a comprehensive 60-day money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with this product. In the end, the Identity Theft Deterrent guide is a viable solution to protect yourself and your family from identity theft.</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">First you have to be over 21 to get a credit card. New laws were recently passed.</p>
<p>Second, it will be difficult to get a credit card with that score. If so, you&#8217;ll get one with an annual fee and high interest rates &#8211; which is ridiculous to do.</p>
<p>If you are under 21, get a parent to co-sign on a card for you. Just remember, carrying balances can easily destroy your credit score. So, pay in full each month for what you buy.

<h2>Is this the best way possible to establish the highest credit score?</h2>
<p>(I have 1 year of making my auto loan payments on time and no previous credit history.)</p>
<p>1)  Go to my bank and take out a CD for $2,000 that pays interest.</p>
<p>2) Get a secured loan for $1,000 against the CD and pay it off in a year on time.</p>
<p>3) Take $500 to a different bank and establish a security deposit account to qualify for a secured credit card.</p>
<p>4)  Repeat this once more at a third bank.</p>
<p>5)  Use both credit cards but never charge more than a maximum balance of 9% of the total credit card limit.</p>
<p>6) Pay the minimum payment on a bi-weekly basis by splitting the payment into half.</p>
<p>According to this FICO <strong>score</strong> <strong>estimator</strong> my resulting FICO score would be 735-785 in 1 year.</p>

<p>Sound like a plan! I would pay the total balance on the credit cards each month instead of the minimum. You have the right idea though; you have to establish a credit history to enjoy a high credit score.</p></div>

<h2>Unrealistic Credit Score?</h2>
<p>I am a college student with a checking card, and a credit card that I have had for about a year but I always pay in full on time, and thus, have never carried a balance. Also, I&#8217;ve never had a loan, though I&#8217;ve never missed a payment on a bill of any sort.</p>
<p>I just did one of those free credit estimators and it estimated my credit between 715 and 765. These are very good scores and I find it ridiculous that I would have a rating of even 715 with so little financial history.</p>
<p>Would this really be a ballpark range of my score, or does the estimator do a bad job of estimating credit for people in my age group?</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">Is that an unrealistic score? No.</p>
<p>But the fact is that your history is considered &#8220;thin&#8221; so any score really won&#8217;t carry much weight. Most creditors and lenders like to see at least 2 years of solid history before they start to really consider your credit score.</p>
<p>If you just keep doing what you are doing, in paying on-time and paying off your card every month you will be just fine.</p>

<h2>Will my credit score go up if I pay a delinquent account?</h2>
<p>I was on freecreditreport.com and it said I had a delinquent account because I missed a payment. I payed the account off the other day as well as all my other revolving credit accounts.  all I have left are school loans. I&#8217;m wondering if the next time the credit card companies report if my credit report will still show a delinquent account or if it will eliminate it.</p>
<p>I used the score estimator on the website and it showed that by paying off my cards I should increase my score by 24 points and if I have no delinquent accounts it increases another 42 points. I guess I&#8217;m really asking, if when you get a delinquent account will it be taken off my credit score right away or do I have to wait 7 years? That&#8217;s what I have been hearing from other people.</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">The account will update to paid with a $0 balance and will not show as currently delinquent but the missed payment will still show on your payment history.</p>
<p>One missed payment is not really that bad. Just make sure all of your future payments are made as agreed and you will be fine.</p>
<p>And so you will know, it does not drop off after 2 years; it simply switches places where it&#8217;s shown.</p>
<p>Your last 24-months history shows in it&#8217;s entirety. The missed payment will still show for 7-years but will not effect your score after 24-months.</p>

<h2>Improving a Poor Credit Score!?</h2>
<p>I don&#8217;t know my actual score, but I did the estimator and I&#8217;m guessing it is in the mid 500&#8242;s.</p>
<p>I went to college last year and got in way over my head. I was young.. still am, but I realized how important money and credit is. I opened four credit cards last year: two store and two regular. All of them have a balance. I lived off of them all year: not smart. I know!!!</p>
<p>Now, how long do you perceive it will take me to get my credit straightened out. I am on a payment plan and will have all of them paid off by January. Once they are all paid, I know my credit will not boost immediately, but how long should it take? I am moving into an apartment in January and want to make sure I won&#8217;t need a co-signer.</p>
<p>I am still in college and I do have college loans out.</p>
<p>I just want a 650 for starters&#8230;.! HELP!</p>
<p>My total cost of credit debt is:</p>
<p>Capital One: $400 (but limit is $300)<br />
Macys: $200 (limit is $500)<br />
NY and Co: $400 (limit is $200.. missed May and July payment)<br />
Chase: $900 (limit is $600&#8230; late fee&#8217;s)</p>
<p>I got a new job and have steady income now&#8230;.</p>
<p>Paying as much as I can each month now, but in January I am paying all of it off completely.</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">In order to improve your score, you must first know what makes up your score:</p>
<p>1. Payment history &#8211; 35%<br />
2. Total debt owed vs. Available credit &#8211; 30%<br />
3. Length of time establishing credit &#8211; 15%<br />
4. Types of credit established &#8211; 10%<br />
5. Inquiries and New accounts &#8211; 10%</p>
<p>With that said, I don&#8217;t have to tell you that the biggest killer to your score are the late payments. Each late payment can take a chunk out your score each time. So the NY &amp; Co. Card dinged you up pretty good.</p>
<p>Next, you&#8217;re more than maxed on 3 cards. Like I mentioned above, that&#8217;s the 2nd most important aspect of your score. So, with that in mind, my suggestion would be to tackle the overlimit accounts first, since they&#8217;re doing the most damage to your score.</p>
<p>I would pay the minimum payment on the Macy&#8217;s. Then pay as much as possible on the Chase, Capital One, and NY &amp; Co. to get those over limit amounts down as quickly as possible. You didn&#8217;t mention whether or not if the accounts were still open. It&#8217;s important that if they are to get them back in good standing as soon as possible, as this is what&#8217;s going to help bring up your score. Depending on how quickly you get those accounts in good standing, it may take a little longer than January before your score starts going back up.</p>
<p>What I would do is take a 2 pronged approach. Pay all the cards off, and save a little bit here and there for a deposit. Because you just can&#8217;t rely on just your credit score nowadays. So my advice would be to be patient, start paying everything off and save up to move out.</p>

<h2>Making a store loan for furniture reduces credit?</h2>
<p>I did a score estimator at <a href="http://www.credit.com/calculators/score/" target="blank">http://www.credit.com/calculators/score/</a></p>
<p>I need to increase my mix of credit badly. Even though I have great scores with my 2 cards a mix of credit could help. I have nothing else on my credit report.</p>
<p>I did that calculator and realized that my score could go up by the most with a mortgage, a little less with an auto loan, and even less with a student or personal loan.</p>
<p>But when I input the store loan (finance accounts), my score dropped from 804 to 795 &#8211; Hypothetical.</p>
<p>I pay both my credit cards in full each month. I put $500 or $1,000 usage each month for the credit cards. I pay in full &#8211; but pay when I get the bill in the mail &#8211; so the credit reports show a balance.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll see that even though the score is over 800 adding a morgtage (or other loan), all raised my score. But when I input a store finance loan &#8211; the score went down to 795. Nothing else was changed.</p>
<p>Who can tell me why a store loan would actually reduce your credit score? When all others (one at a time) increase my score?</p>
<p>Is it the same concept as to why leasing a car reduces your credit so much?</p>
<p>Is it also considered subprime by the fico?</p>
<p>If so, the fico scoring system needs to be disclosed so people know when they are hurting their own credit.</p>
<p>Can someone input their own information and see if adding a furniture finance account reduces their score?</p>

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">A department store like Penney&#8217;s or Macy&#8217;s is fine. But if you get a loan from a used car dealer or a furniture store, it&#8217;s probably a finance company loan. Those loans are the kind people who don&#8217;t have good credit get. Not nice, but there you go.</p>

<h2>Do late payments, delinquencies, defaults ever disappear from your credit record?</h2>
<p>I&#8217;ve heard that negative things stay on the credit report for 7 to 10 years. Online FICO score estimators will ask if you have EVER been late on any bill. That suggests that some things just don&#8217;t disappear.</p>

<h2>Credit score on renting a house? Should we be okay?</h2>
<p>My fiance and me are looking to rent a place and we recently found one and paid the credit check price of £125. Im not sure what our credit rating is, but I found an estimator site saying its about 700 give or take.</p>
<p>I will give you the financial info to see if that helps my question.. We have a joint account, we earn roughly £1200 a month (although this is the minimun amount as we do a lot of overtime!!!) My fiance has £130 of commitments a month. Although we go into overdraft a little bit we always get out of it within 2 weeks max. He has £1400 debt on his credit card but never misses a payment.

<h3>financial answers:</h3>
<p class="dtm-content">The credit check shouldn&#8217;t be a problem, but affordability is something they will check.</p>
<p>You need to earn (before tax) 2½ times your annual rent.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve both been employed full time for 6 months, then you can add your income together to reach that. If one of you hasn&#8217;t then it&#8217;s 2½ x the one that has.</p>
<p>You will also need a good reference from employer and ex-landlord.</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t do any of the above you will probably need someone to legally guarantee that you&#8217;ll pay your rent &#8211; they will need to be checked out too (and pay)</p>
