Building Credit Preventing Repair
If you want to prevent credit repair procedures, you need to
keep your payments up to date. Financial emergencies may come
up, so it is important that you meet minimal payments on time.
If you have utilities, house payment, car payment, or other dues
try to knock them out to avoid complications.
If you are in debt over your head and have very little income
and assets it might be wise to do nothing, Sounds insane, but
the reality is when you are taking to court most of the
collectors won't be able to collect a dime. This procedure is
called 'judgment proof.' If you elect this procedure you won't
go to jail.
There are advantages by acting on the 'judgment proof,' such as
the Federal Laws protect you against creditors coming to your
home and confiscating your belongings. The downside is you are
not resolving anything and in the long run you won't get credit.
On the other hand if you want to face your credit problems, you
can take several steps to build your credit. If you have an
attitude "it doesn't matter how much I owe, I am in debt and
can't get out.
" Then you probably should take the 'judgment proof' method.
However if you have an attitude "How much do I owe so I can work
to resolve." Then you are on the road to rebuilding your credit.
Start by over viewing the current bills that you have received.
You can also call the companies that sent you the bill to find
out how much you owe. Once you have totaled your bills, and find
an amount that you can pay each month toward all the bills owed.
You can also get reports of your credit report from Trans Union,
Equifax, and Experian, however unless you have recently applied
for a loan and was turned down you won't get these reports free.
You can go online to check out the various sources that offer
credit reports, and some places enable you to get all three
reports for around $25. This is wise since the more you apply
for loans or any source of credit, the more it goes against your
credit score. The credit score is more important than the
rating.
When it comes to dealing with credit repair or credit building,
we have several options available. If you are in debt for more
than $10,000 and your future doesn't look promising, you can
always file bankruptcy. Be alert that bankruptcy doesn't
necessary mean that you are out of debt, rather it means that
the courts will decide on a monthly fee that you can afford to
repay your debts. Some debts are dropped in bankruptcies,
depending on your lawyer and what he/she can do for you.
You could also apply for a consolidation loan, which is a little
better than bankruptcy in the sense you promise to the lenders
that you will pay a certain amount each month until the debts
are paid in full. It pays to shop around if you are going this
route, since some lenders charges fees to get you out of debt,
as well as some lenders do not work hard to get you affordable
monthly installments for repayments. The last thing you need is
to be paying more than you can afford each month.
If you have assets, such as a house or car, you might want to
sell to raise money to get out of debt. This almost always works
out in your best interest. If you can't afford payments in the
first place, you have nothing to loose. Once you sell your item
then you can payoff any other debts you may have and work toward
building your credit. The more effort you make in building your
credit, the more opportunities you will have of reestablishing
your credit rating and score. If you are struggling to get out
of debt be sure to set up a budget for yourself so that you are
not going in deeper. When you are in debt small sacrifices or
even big sacrifices needs to happen in order to repair and
rebuild your credit score and ratings.
