I am hoping to purchase a new home this spring and have been working on my credit report for a while. I have 1 Collection reporting on both my Equifax and Experian. Any ideas on how to get them deleted. I've tried numerous calls and good will letters with no luck. I'm kind of worried about messing with Midland because it mysteriously disappeared from my Transunion.
Experian:
Collection Agency: Midland Funding
Original Lender: Citibank
Original Balance: 739
Status: Paid was collection account
Date Assigned: 10/21/2010
(no other info provided)
Equifax:

Original Balance: 524
Current balance: $0
Date assigned: 12/2011
Discription: Consumer Disputes after resolution, Accout paid less than full balance, Paid collection.
What are your scores at right now? Are both those collections sitting at closed/$0?
You're down to the wire if you're trying for a mortgage in less than 6 months. Make no sudden moves. If your scores could currently bear out a loan approval, I'd just leave them alone.
