When you are getting a home they like to see your credit score 620 and above to get preapproved for a loan. But in order to get better rates for loans they usually want to see your score in the range of seven hundred. They may be more forgiving if this is your first home purchase.

How do you purchase and use credit cards?

You can buy credit cards by applying for them on the websites of the various credit card companies. You can also get 'prepaid' credit cards from supermarkets. To use a credit card, you swipe it(for purchases in brick and mortar stores) or type in its specified number(for online purchases) to make a charge for whatever you are trying to purchase and then you must pay the card issuer for the charges later on.

If you have bad credit and are trying to get a signature loan to pay debts can a co-signer with good credit help you if they aren't a member of your credit union?

Credit Unions are only allowed to do business with their members, so I would assume that a cosigner would also have to be a member. If it helps, give him the $5 to purchase one share.

How long should you wait before trying to get a new car after a repossession?

Bad credit says on your account for 5-7 years. If you wait 3-4, then you may be able to get another car with a co-signer or with high interest. You may be lucky to get one after 2 years. The more attempts you make to inquire on your credit report to get a car, the worse it looks. You must go to a credit counselor or the credit beureau to inquire on your credit account without any negative impacts. Certainly there are lenders that MAY give a loan to someone with bad credit, especially if there is a down payment, etc. theyalways charge a much higher interest rate, and hence the loan may not, or should not, be something you should want to encumber yourself with. Which brings us to the real answer for "how long". You should only consider trying to get another loan after you have corrected whatever caused you to default before and have gotten your finances under control so that you can actually abide by the terms and promises you would agree to.
