Credit and You

Posted By admin on June 1, 2009

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

If you are considering purchasing a home, auto, insurance, etc. it is important that you build a better credit rating.  In today’s podcast, Serena discusses the importance of improving your credit rating. 

This podcast reveals that there are three credit bureaus that every first time home buyer and investor should be aware of.  Those bureaus are:

  • Equifax                 800-685-1111             www.equifax.com
  • Experian               888-397-3742             www.experian.com
  • Transunion           800-916-8800             www.transunion.com

Purchasing a home may be the biggest purchase that you do so it is important to repair your credit at least three to six months before you plan to purchase your home. 

As promised, there is an attachment to a free example of a letter to dispute mistake on your credit reports.
