S&N Debt Solutions Provides New Ideas for Raising Credit Scores
Beverly, MA (PRWEB) September 17, 2014 -- A bad credit score can hold you back from being granted credit in the form of a loan or a credit card. S&N Debt Solutions has started to educate their clients about how to raise their credit scores. Nicole Morgan, President of S&N said this; "one of the first things mortgage lenders look at is your credit score. If your credit score is too low, a lender may not grant you a mortgage regardless of the value of the property."
One of the first questions people ask is what are the factors that make-up my credit score? According to the financial gurus at S&N; here are the five most important factors that credit providers look for when evaluating your credit worthiness;
1. Do you pay your bills on time or are you chronically late and subject to late fees? In order to reach a high score you must pay your bills on time.
2. Are you using a large amount of credit such as; a car payment, a mortgage, credit cards, and other loans? If you have too much current debt compared to your income your score can be adversely affected.
3. How long have you had credit? Measured in years, the longer you’ve been managing credit and debt the better.
4. What type of credit do you use? For example, credit used to purchase assets like a mortgage or education loans is considered better than credit card debt. It is a plus if you have a mortgage and you have made consistent and on time mortgage payments over a period of years.
5. How much credit are you using out of all the credit that is available to you? Lenders prefer to see that you are not using all of it. The amount of credit you use provides lenders with an indication of whether you are living within your means. Use caution and resist the “urge to splurge” especially during the holiday season.
Nicole Morgan expressed it this way; "In the end once you have a high credit score you will be among an exclusive group to whom lenders want to offer loans. A high credit score can be maintained when you act responsibly with your finances."
It's important to know what you credit score is and S&N recommends checking it with any of the three major reporting agencies at least once per year.
