Houston Credit Repair Coach Talks About Rapid Rescoring
Are you worried about qualifying for a loan or just paying too much interest due to inaccuracies on your credit report? There are companies that specialize in rapid credit rescoring which will give you a recalculated score in a couple days. These companies have special relationships with the 3 big credit agencies.
Unfortunately, it sounds too good to be true because there is a plot twist. You cannot access them - only your mortgage broker can. You are welcome, of course, to ask them to run a rapid credit rescoring but be sure that you are seriously considering getting a loan with that broker because these companies charge a fee for their services.
It is always better to repair the credit issues several (six) months prior to applying for a loan. If your score is under 680, experts still say that you might want to shoot for a rapid rescore if you are intending to apply for a loan within one month.
What Rapid Rescoring can and cannot accomplish:
1. They are not able to work with YOU:
Reporting agencies are the middlemen between the bureaus and lenders and the smaller ones offer the rapid rescoring. And since they are relatively small, they don't have the capacity for handling direct communication with the public.
2. These services make no promises:
Remember, sometimes removing some negative items from your credit report can cause your credit score to drop! So they cant make promises.
3. They cannot delete legitimate derogatory marks but rapid rescoring services can try to remove some errors:
A rapid rescorer can't get negative items, such as late payment remarks, or items that are in dispute removed. You have to have some proof that a mistake was made. You cant just say it. If the credit bureau has already investigated your complaint concerning a particular error, then usually that item cannot be included in a rapid rescoring process.
4. They can help with errors only if you have proof
The best plan is definitely to repair (or restore, or whatever you want to call it) your credit FIRST because the services require that you have the approved dispute in writing. Otherwise, the usually short turnaround time for a "rapid rescoring" takes much longer - but they may still be able to get the proof for you.
A creditor may currently be reporting a high balance on your account (ie from a credit card). This high balance may be keeping you from being approved for a better mortgage rate. If you pay down the balance electronically right now, then you can have the rapid rescorer renew your score in 72 hours. This will then essentially show that the creditor has a mistake (because you no longer have that high balance), and you can now show the correct current balance sooner instead of having to wait a long time to have it show up on your credit report.
Hope this helped anyone.
