 Others will chime in I'm sure.

 

 1) Let the charge-off go, but be ready for it to come back if you go shopping for a home loan.

 

 2) Pay off your medical collections; start with the smallest one. Then offer a payment plan for the other and get PFD on both. 

 

 Open some new accounts; with scores in the low to mid 500's, seems your file is thin.

 

  Get some secured cards and use them responsibly.
