So Ive been rebuilding for many months by paying collections, sending GW and getting things removed, etc. with the ultimate goal of getting a USDA mortgage. I got to the point where I can do no more repair unless Cap One deletes their charge offs so I purchased the TU Myfico score to get an idea of where I was at compared to the EQ score. My EQ is 681 and TU is 675. I know there the TU on this site is supposedly inaccurate so I was a little worried about the lender pull for my prequal. I was pleasantly surprised by the following score. TU - 694, EQ - 6814, EX - 680! The EQ was right on the money! I still have two 3 year old charge-offs from Cap One, a Foreclosure, and a charged off 2nd Mortgage on my report but I have lots of good tradelines as well. Just thoght that this might help someone who is wondering how their scores might look in a similar situation.
Thanks for sharing. I'm working on rebuilding mine as well - in the longterm overall but short term first priority is qualify for a FHA mortgage loan. I love hearing success stories because it keeps me hopeful! One more GW adjustment to go
Thanks for sharing. I started rebuilding a month ago. I have a foreclosure and 3 chargeoffs from 09 and one recent medical collection. Unfortunately, I have no positive tradelines. Just acquired 2 cc's working on a third. My goal is to obtain a mortgage as well. I hope to get where you are someday.
