Good Credit is a Must
We all should know that good credit is a "must have." However, if you have recently been shocked to see your bank statement, credit card bills, don't seem to have enough cash to manage all your obligations, or been denied credit, it's time to examine your financial situation.
You may be quite fearful about looking at your credit report, but you need to bite the bullet and be proactive about seeing this document(s). No one can do this for you and there is no magic for fixing the situation without your involvement.
We do know that our ability to get a mortgage, car loan, personal loan, credit cards is dependent on a good credit rating. We also need to know that there are other issues at stake for us if our credit risk is poor. Your level of debt and credit card payments have the most effect on your credit score. There are some areas affected by a poor credit rating that you might not know about. You need to increase your awareness of these areas which add more reason for you to repair your credit.
Negative effects of poor credit:
a. Denied car loan b. Denied employment c. Denied health, life, homeowner's insurance d. Denial of /or high interest rates for credit cards and loans e. Denial of a cell phone contract f. Being unable to start your own business
Our financial world can be successful or miserable, but credit is the basis for our personal financial world and we need credit. Therefore, if you have defaulted (or are close), are having cash flow problems, large credit repair balances, credit repair is a necessity.
It is possible for you to repair your credit. You can research the ways to get your credit report(s). There are 3 major credit reporting bureaus. Compare your reports, and dispute any errors (see Fair Credit Reporting Act).
Contact your current creditors, explain the situation. If your creditors realize that you want to pay your debts, they will be much more likely to work with you. Regaining good credit is work and only you know whether you will be able to do the repair yourself. There is a lot of information to help you.
