I have always done my best to manage finances carefuly. While going through seperation in 2016 a few payments were missed due to my ex being spiteful. Fast foward to now: no late or high utilization or new accounts since that time,,,however my score has hovered in the mid 600' for over 3 years. I am currently house shopping and my middle score is 4 points away from qualifying for a non pmi, 3% down mortgage and great interest rate given the current rates. I have 3 months to improve my score (new construction) Here is my profile:
2016- 3 collections accounts from Medical Data Systems. FULLY paid in 2016
2016- 1 30 day late from Macys. I attempted a GW howevet was denied. The late balance was $7...grr!
2016- six 30 day lates on GM auto loan. I havent attemped a G W because of the amount of lates that year.
2016- 8 90 day lates for student loan.
2016- 1 30 day late for Cap one credit card
Additional: I only have 1 credit card, 1 store card, 1 auto loan and my student loans- all in good standing/low utilization since 2016.
As you can see, 2016 was a rollercoaster due to seperation/divorce but on bright side, the other side of divorce has been a refreshing new start for me and my children. If you all can provide your best tips for helping me improve my scores...I would be oh so greatful!! Have a great day!!!
