It is not necessarily hard to achieve an 800 Fico score. And it doesn't really matter. Once your credit score is above 720 you're pretty much in the highest tier necessary to apply for any type of credit, and the lowest interest rates.

The score is important, but it's also what is behind the score that matters as well. If a creditor analyzes your credit report, and sees an 800 score with limited trade history it means very little. But if a creditor reviews your credit report and sees a ton of solid credit history with a 750 score it will weigh a lot stronger in your favor.

I've seen consumers with 800 Fico scores and very little credit depth. The reason being is that they have limited history, yet everything has been paid on time and there is very little outstanding debt. At the same time, their 800 score means very little if they go after a large loan, as they have no history to support a large amount of debt.

The bottomline is your credit score is more than perfect. And 800 is just an arbitrary number. If you really want to raise it above 800, you'll probably need to erase all your outstanding debt, while keeping your accounts open and current.

yes, i hear it IS difficult.....
even inquiries to your credit can knock off a point or 2


Christian93
There could be a few inquiries lowering your score.

Do you use more than 1/3 of your credit limit on your credit cards. For example--credit card limit is $900, you should use only 1/3 of that or $300. If you use more, it will lower your score.


Laura
Sometimes your score can be lower just by the NUMBER of cards you havr...even though your payments are on time......


shahab a
not hard at all, pay of a few loans and it will reach that.

800 really is that hard, 3 cards is the ideal. Have you had large loans that you paid off? Large amounts of debt that you have paid off on time are a must.

Three or four (activated) cards is a must. Keep on charging and pay it off AS SOON AS YOU CAN. This is the quickest way to raise it. The next quickest thing to boost your credit is to buy a house. This is why you see someone buy a house, and boom...new car sitting in the driveway. Not that I condone buying a house if you aren't ready, just a thought in case you are looking. Check on Suze Orman's site and see if you can find anything on there, you will probably luck out. Good luck!

Do you own a home? Have you taken out several loans, that have then been paid off? Oddly enough, not having debt isn't the only key, you also have to get into debt, then get out of it while making regular, on-time payments. Otherwise, you'll develop "ghost credit."
