only like 5 months -andrea It must depend on the type of credit report. My 2007 CSC Mortgage Services report has credit card accounts on it that I closed in 1997. No late payments, no negative marks. Just listed there as a closed account. -Lee
Foreclosures can be removed from your credit report like any other negative item. You must dispute it to the credit bureaus. The credit bureaus will have 30 days to verify the foreclosure or it must be removed from your credit report. With the higher amount of foreclosures lately you have a better chance of it being removed. UPDATE: Actually, you can force Equifax, Experian and TransUnion to remove a Foreclosure from your credit report and you can do it legally using a federal law that is in place. Credit Bureaus MUST have "verifiable proof" of the "foreclosure account" in their files if they are going to report the negative item on your report. The dirty little secret the credit bureaus don't want you to know is that they do not have any "verifiable proof" in their files for any of the negative items on your credit report. The bank that held your mortgage may have this information on file but the credit bureaus don't. If you request the credit bureau to provide you with the "verifiable proof" that they have in their files they will remove the negative from your file.
I'm not sure if you are asking if the bank closing will be negative or if the inquries will be. The inquires are negative.
It should be removed from the credit report in 2009. A bankruptcy remains on a credit report for ten years from date of discharge.

that it has been closed by either you or the company- either way it shows as a negative in your report
It depends on what you mean. If you have erroneous information on your credit report, contact the credit reporting agency and tell them you want to file a dispute. If you're referring to a negative credit account or report that is in fact accurate, you usually cannot have that removed. Entries on your credit report are removed automatically after 7-10 years depending on what it is.

Negative information cannot be removed from a credit report until the time limit for the debt has expired. The time limit for most judgments is 7 years.
You get closed accounts removed from your credit report in the same manner as any other information. You write a letter of dispute to the creditor, or credit bureau, or both. The question is; why do you want closed accounts removed from your credit? If these accounts were paid as agreed, their appearance on your credit report is still offsetting any other information that appears there. I have clients with closed, 6-10 year old, accounts and active derogatory accounts that still have viable credit scores. Were they to challenge and have removed the closed accounts, they would have no score at all, which can be worse than having a low score. Keep in mind that your credit report, and the resulting credit score, is a history of how you have paid your bills in the last 7 to 10 years. You do not necessarily want that history to be empty.

It may. I have heard rumors that the statement "closed by credit grantor" is considered negative and has an impact on credit scores. "Closed by consumer" is considered a positive and does not impact scores. This is unconfirmed and certainly not in writing outside of the scoring companies.
