Rapid Credit Score Recovery After Bankruptcy!
Credit Score May 10th, 2008Most credit experts agree that the worst possible credit entry on your Credit Report is a Bankruptcy. Whether you have filed a Chapter 13 (13 is a pay back plan with just some debts eliminated) or Chapter 7 (everything is eliminated except for a few essentials), it demonstrates a complete failure in managing your credit.
Regardless of why you filed, this entry stays on your credit report for 7-10 years. Everyone has their story, and sometimes circumstances go beyond anyone’s ability to recover from insurmountable debts. A good example is when a family member suffers a catastrophic illness and the medical bills are way beyond any health insurance benefits.
But there are ways to recover fairly quickly from this type of situation. It takes a little dedication and effort but in as little as 18 months you can have your credit score back in the high 600 range. Your credit score can range from 300-800+, and if your score is below 600 for any reason it’s time to make some changes.
The reality is that no one is better at improving your credit score than you. It doesn’t take any special talent or skills. You do need to face the reality that you are at a disadvantage and it’s time to start taking corrective action. Put the bad experience behind you and move forward. Easy to say, sometimes hard to do. So if you need some counseling help, a good place to look is your local community organizations or perhaps even your church. There are people that are willing to help you get over this problem, and don’t have to pay for it.
