Post Chapter 7
Filed 07/5/05
FICO: 631
Filed Jan 2010...scores below are current...with util paid down to 0-9% (now 35%, with about $1,700 total in debt to pay off), MyFICO simulator says EQ could be 698-738, so on go the freezes and off to the garden I go!
My BK7 was in July 2007, discharged in November 2007
At that time scores were all around 600.
Bought my house last year in September, those scores were in the 680 range
Now scores have not done much since, they are all still 680-695.
I hope next year I am able to break the 700 club, but I am not sure as I only have my mortgage and 1 credit union CC for 1k and a JC Penney charge for 1k also. They never carry a balance and are used very sparingly.
