Hi
I'm new here and have some questions.
I'm trying to refi my mortgage and need 720+ score.
Currently have 705 Beacon 5.0 at EFX. 822 Fico-II at XPN and 711 Fico Classic 98 at TUC.
I had 3 -30 day lates 2 from 2006 1 from 2003. I was able to get the 2 from 2006 removed and will attempt to call on the one from 2003.
Will the removal of the 2- 30 day lates improve my score much?
Should I bother with the 2003?
Also have a charge off from Verizon from 02/08. Will my score improve after that becomes over a year old?
Any chance a GW letter would work for this charge off?
I also have a $7823 balance on a credit card that i was going to pay in full. Will that improve my score?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Thanks for the reply.
The CC I was going to PIF has a CL of about 44,000.
The rest of my CC's have no balance.
Although I have a balance on my checking overdraft of about 1250 of a 2300 CL.
Which I am also going to PIF.
Do you think that will help?
Anything else I could do short term to get a little pop?
PS That CO doesn't appear on XPN.
Thanks.
I tried a Gw call to Verizon with no luck. I may try a letter at this point.
I'll pay the OD account and hope for some extra points. Should I leave some balance or PIF?
