TRYING TO RAISE MY CREDIT SCORE HELP NEEDED

hello and thanks for reading this.  a little about my situation.  I had bad credit habits back in 2000-2002 including a repo and a charge off capitol one card  and a couple of collections for hospital bills.   also have a student loan charge off from a technical school but it is only showing on trans union. I have paid off all the hospital bills and had them removed.  as for current info here is whats there.

 

FAKO'S TU 597 pulled by CK  EX 683 pulled by CS  EQ 653 pulled by FRSC

 just used usaa 8/17/2012  TU 563    EQ 9002  EX 9002

inquiries TU=7 EQ=3  EX=7       

average age of  credit lines 2y 9m on TU

student loan   6200.00  paid as agreed  no lates

student loan   3800.00  paid as agreed  no lates

 

student loan   3200.00  charged off date of first del.  sept. 2006 falls off 10/2013

 

 I was just approved for capitol one unsecured card 500cl it hasn't shown up on any report yet.  cap one live support said yesterday that they inform cra's 30 days after they generate 1st bill.   would be 8/21

 

i wanted to wait to pull my real ficos from here on wed. of next week  just to give cap one time to show up.  i was thinking about using score watch to see experian and just buying my Trans union from here.  is that my best option i don't want to get another inq. by going to a mortgage lender.  After getting my real ficos what do i do next.  I have been working on rebuilding my credit for 2 years now  and i'm not sure what to do next i'm shooting for 720 for all 3 reports.  thanks again for reading all that any help i can get will be appreciated  if there is any other info needed i can add it
