christyrn | How do you correct bad credit? |
My boyfriend has horrible credit with a lot of past things he needs to pay off. Is there a type of credit counsler, or financial advisor that can help him get started? We want to start looking for a house, and I know he will not be able to get a loan. Thanks! |

There are many ways to repair a credit, but they all require a least a few months.

if you have past credit issues with no activity for 24 months {some lenders go as recent as 12 months} ,my recommendation is, to not do anything with them until after you get your house.
One of the worst mistakes people make is, to contact old creditors with old balances,{things they have not paid on in a year or more} and begin to make payments thinking this will show they are making an effort,and it does.However many subprime mortgage lenders have guidelines that allow you to get a mortgage even with unpaid balances,and charge offs and even bankruptcy, if there has been no activity for two years{sometimes1yr!}. Some people make 2 $30.00 payments on a $3000.00 balance they have not paid on in 3 yrs.Then they find out they now, have to pay off the entire $3000.00 bal.for even, a subprime lender to give them a mortgage.If you have, new bills,that have reporting activity, in the last 2 yrs,make sure they are current. Leave the old ones alone until you have secured your loan,then contact them and begin cleaning up past debt.
While a subprime loan is always a higher cost and interest than an "A" paper loan, if you get a 2/24 year A.R.M from a subprime lender and make all of your new payments on time, in 2 years you can apply for a low interest 30 year fixed loan and ususally get it if you`ve kept your debt to income ratio low and your income and employment info has stayed relatively the same.
i recommend talking to a licensed mortgage broker about one of the following companies: countrwide, chase home loans b&c, option one mortgage or long beach mortgage.Brokers work with dozens and dozens of lenders as they all have different guidelines and niches they fill. |

There are credit couseling agencies and services and there is also the option to repair his credit himself by contacting his creditors and the crediting agencies. For a ton of info on credit see http://creditwisdom.blogspot.com |

Sounds exciting to be looking for a new home!
Correcting bad credit though, can take some time...Hopefully you can make payments on your loans "on time." That is very important. Additionally you should make an attempt to Prequalify for a home loan. This works for your advantage. It pretty much tells you how much of a loan you can afford. Your debt to income ratio comes into play here. Its also a good idea to save for a down payment if at all possible.
Remember if you and your boyfriend sign the papers for the loan, then your both responsible. If the loan goes into default, regardless whose fault it is, then that would be a major blemish on both of your credit reports.
Good Luck! |

if he pays all his bills on time from now on he will gradually fix his credit. After 2 or 3 years of not falling behind and steady employment he should be fine. |

You start with paying everything on time. It is possible to establish good credit without having to revisit every debt you have ever owed in your life. The credit industry understands that sometimes people change, but you have to prove it. Of course, some of that depends on what he needs to pay off. If there are any legal judgements, they most certainly have to be paid, or you will not get a mortgage. If it is a matter of an old phone or cable bill, it is possible to live that down without having to pay it off. Still, it can take some time.
Apart from paying current utility bills, etc. that are in his name on time, you could try to get a secured credit card (they charge you an upfront fee for the privilege of allowing you to charge things). You then be very sure to make those payments as soon as you get the bill - always pay more than the minimum balance and don't ever let it be late. Don't quite pay it off completely - the object is to prove that you can handle paying bills on time, not that you have the money to buy things.
Just be warned that it took some time and effort to get a bad credit rating and it will take a couple of years of being a good money manager to get a good credit rating back. |

You can correct bad credit only by counteracting it with time or good credit. Wait 7 years, or re-establish good credit. |

Be careful of credit counslers or the companies which claim to help your credit. You cannot legally change your true credit history. If the company pays the creditor late, it will have a negative effect. Your best bet is for your bf to work directly with the creditors and set up payment plans and ten stick to the plans. |
