The myths spread faster than the trues, that is why I am going to explain some of the most common myths in the credit repair area, one of the biggest myths is that you need a professional agency to manage your debt problems, this agencies can help you nevertheless they charge big fees for something you can handle yourself pretty well.

Myth 1: I need help…I can’t do it myself

We need help once in a while why not, but credit repair and debt consolidation is not one of those areas, it is an area where you can do it by yourself. Back in the days when I saw my credit report for first time I saw some “bad marks” on it (you know some late payments and stuff) I start freaking out and remember to think “there is no way I can do this by myself I will need some professional help” nevertheless I did it myself how? easy I got educated that is the key. And now you are going to get the best education possible on this subject, about how to consolidate your debt, repair your credit, maintain your credit score etc… while I was studying my credit report I realize about some big mistakes by either the creditor, the credit bureau and even both!!. This were not mine at all, I found several mistakes in multiple accounts and making some research turns out that anywhere from 75% to 90% of the credit reports contain errors.

Myth 2: Your bad credit can’t be fix.

Not at all, having a bad credit rate does not mean you can’t fix it, it may take you some time to do it, but you can definitely do it. There are several avenues to repair your credit, build positive lines of credit and returning on the good credit path. One of my most embarrassing stories occur me when I was applying for a Banana Republic card and I was denied in the middle of a very important Holiday, improving your credit it is just a matter of get the right education on the right topics and with my videos you will get all the education you need.

Myth 3: You Only Have One Credit Score

You have 3 credit scores, not just one, each one of this credit scores is from the major credit reporting agencies. all 3 will show different scores, that is why when applying for a credit one company may use one report while other company may use a different one, it is always a good idea to get the 3 reports from the different bureaus because they can have serious diferences.

Myth 4: Your score will decrease if you check it.

There are soft inquiries and hard inquiries, and they affect in a different way your credit score, the hard inquiries are those that affect your credit score and are done for the companies you wish to get credit from, the soft inquiries does not affect your score and these are the inquiries that are done in order to obtain your information for promotional proposes.

Myth 5: If you are shopping around for a Loan your score will be lower.

This is one of the most common myths, remember that if you are looking for a credit from several vendors (mortgage, car loans, home loans, etc…), all this inquiries will appear in your credit report just once but remember that this just apply if the same kind of inquiry is made within 14 days, the only exception to this rule are credit cards.

Myth 6: Remove ll the negative items is the only way to improve my score.

This is a partial true, because as a matter of fact erasing your bad marks is just one part of the whole solution, what will boost your credit score is building “positive credit”. Can you still remember those days were you were turned down from a credit card company because you did not have credit? actually what they were trying to say is that you did not have build a “positive credit” with credit card companies.
