I know things vary, my question is in general terms how much could I see my score go up, under the following conditions--- Current score- 589 My chptr 7 bankruptcy just disharged yesterday
My plan is one car loan and 2 secured cards
the cards will be kept at 15% balances and the
car loan (8K) I will put 4k towarrds the car loan after 3 months then
just continue to pay the normal mnthly payment the only other open account
will be student loan which will be paid on time and I will have the loan down
to 1/2 the high credit limit by years end. Under this senario what I could I
reasnable expect to see as far as a credit score increase.
Thanks very much for the advice, I wanted to get the car laon so I would have a mix of accounts not just ccs, and I thought paying 1/2 of the balnce after several months would help because of utilization scoring. and also help in building payment history. I want to get an fha loan 24 months after bk. I would have the car loan payed off by then.
am I wrong ? also thanks for the good advice on what balance to mantain on the ccs.
