Repairing your credit score in a recovering economy is more important than ever

DAVIE, Fla. - Nov. 15, 2013 - PRLog -- In a recovering economy, your good name and reputation are important. Creditors have tightened their guidelines barring millions of Americans from borrowing money. Even those with excellent credit and high credit scores have experienced reduced credit limits and closed equity lines. Mortgage lenders, auto finance companies, credit card issuers and banks have all raised the bar. Borrowers with low credit scores can expect to be denied or to pay significantly higher interest rates than those with excellent credit.

Long gone are the days of obtaining credit, goods, benefits, services and/or employment with a 620 credit score. In more instances than not, a consumer will be denied if they maintain a credit score lower than 720.

The terms credit repair, credit restoration and/or credit rehabilitation are somewhat synomous. Those with bad credit cannot afford to ignore the potential benefits of credit repair. In today's society, credit restoration is more important than ever.

Approximately 78% of credit profiles contain some sort of error or omission materially impacting credit worthiness.
