First, you need to pull all 3 credit bureau reports....not a 3 in 1....go to each credit bureau, equifax, experian and transunion, and get a credit report. Second, look for items that are old, outdated, reported wrong, not yours etc, at which point, you dispute those items. If the credit bureau contacts the company you are disputing and they do not resopnd within 30 days, by law, the item has to be removed. This will help your score significantly. Make sure you DO NOT pay any bills past 30 days, and if you have no credit cards, get one or 2, even if you have to secure them, keep your balance low, but use the card. They want to see responsibility, but also a low debt to income ratio. So if you have a credit card with a 10000.00 limit and you have it at a 10000.00 balance, that brings your score down. If you have a 10000.00 card and a 100.00 balance, that keeps your score high. Furthermore, DO NOT apply for credit from various places. The inquiries will kill you. If you keep up with this for about a year, you will be pleased with the results. If you think you are ready to purchase a home, call lenders, explain what your scores are, how much you want to spend and give them all the info, explain that you don't want to waste your time or theirs, so WITHOUT pulling a credit check, do they think they can help you.........tell them you don't want the inquiries since it will bring your score down. Any decent mortgage broker will understand, and will respect that. SO brief recap.....check all 3 CB's, Dispute any INACCURATE info (something as small a $20.00 error is disputable), make sure you are not being reported more than once for the same debt, no late pays, 1 or 2 cards, use responsibly (even if just for gas and pay it off each month) and NO INQUIRIES. Your score is not that bad......just alittle more to go, and you will se a difference in the next year. You will have to saty on top of it, and you will become VERY frustrated, but the end result is wonderful! Good luck!

Is a credit score of 565 bad?

haha yes


If your credit score is 565 is there a lender who can finance you with 100 percent?

Working for a mortgage company myself, there are lenders that will lend to a 565 middle - just expect to not get the greatest program. Your interest rates will be high, and you will likely have a pre-payment penalty. You will have 2 loans - an adjustable 1st and a fixed second. Your first will likely be around 7% (possibly slightly higher), with a 2nd around 11 - 12%. Max loan amount on those will likely be around $250,000, but possibly lower. The lowest FICO I have ever had to do 100& financing for was 580. Hope this helps!


How does new credit work?

Let me tell u this is a good question and I am the 1 who had my fico score go from 565 to 703. U first have to get your credit pulled from the three companys Transunion,Equifax and Experian.After this is done then u can start your new credit line by applying for a cheap credit card one that u have a credit limit of $200-500 then just pay on that. Remember don't be late on any payments,Or your credit score will go down.After about 6months the will increase your credit limit.Then u will get more applications in the mail from other credit companys.Thats the way u start ur credit. Just remember if u pay off the credit limit in 1 yr.Then go to another company they will almost give u the max for that card.Hope this was helpful to u good luck.


What the difference of debit card and credit card?

Credit Card: You don't necessarily have the money in your account right now but at the end of the month you have to pay the bill. Say you have $400 in your account but something cost $565. You can buy that item immediately and at the end of the month you can pay how ever much that item cost.Debit Card: If you have $500 in your bank account, you can use your debit card to buy it and then the money automatically get taken out of your account. Say that you have $1,000 in your account, and you buy some new tires that are about $85, so you use your debit card to pay that $85, and then your bank account money is then subtracted $85 dollars.
