Re: building my credit

When I first started I went down put 1000 in a savings account at the credit union and they gave me a secured installment loan at 3% interest that I paid off in 6 months then I took that 1000 added another 1000 and took out another loan that I paid off in a another 6 months.  I did 3 of those loans and each one boosted my score.  after the first one I got a unsecured capital one credit steps card and an HSBC card before they sold out. After 18 months I got a mortgage and started about where you were.   I just went on a spree for 11 cards and was approved for 10 all with over 5k limits. another year after closing on mortgage.  So keep at it theres a home in your future.  I never thought I would get there but made it and learned alot on the way.
