Roger Mejia New Member Introduction
8 February 2019 | 7 replies
@Roger Mejia the first thing I'd recommend you do is get copies of your credit report from the different agencies.I believe you can do this once a year and because there are so many credit related spam sites out there, I always recommend people start with an official government website on ftc.gov and then branch off from there.You'd want to do this to see exactly what you're dealing with, to see if there's any inaccuracies in the report you can challenge, etc.Other than that, you'd have to do some research and make a plan on which items to address first.The easier thing to do would be to talk to a good mortgage person who can tell you which items on your credit report are most affecting your score, and then s/he can tell you which ones would get the most "bang for your buck" in terms of affecting your score if you clean them up somehow.It may be that you have to wait a year for things to "roll off" in terms of recency, and thus affect your credit less.
