No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I have been a part of this forum for years however I have sadly been busy with a divorce. I am hoping that there is some way to bounce out of this and be able to purchase a home in the future. I know that more information is needed to get a better picture which I will provide later tonight I was just curious if anyone has seen someone go from the low 500's to anywhere in the 600's in a year or less?
Thanks in advance for any and all advice..
UPDATED INFO
I've supplied some information in hopes to provide a better understanding on my situation. I am hoping for a miracle and having my dream of owning a home become a reality for my kids. If there is any additional information needed please mention so and I'll gladly update the post with what I can provide. I just need a roadmap to good credit. Thank you all for the time and advice. Have a blessed day.

definitely have seen scores increase that much in 1 year
That can absolutely happen. It depends on the nature of your derogs and who owns them.
Yep. I've gone from 517 in January of this year to a current 634. It can be done. I wish you the best with your rebuild.

+1
It will depend on what, and how it's reporting, but very doable.
Things aren't always going to look so bleak. Fight the fight and you will see the progress. Each morning is a new start. All the best to you!
Just take a look at my signature. 5 months ago my scores were more or less exactly 100 points higher than my April 2019 scores.
It's possible. Keep believing with faith, determination and preservance as your guidance.
Updated!
ok - i would start with this one

call - ask for a PFD (or look on their site to see if they offer it)
ask for a settlement amount - pay it regardless if it is PFD or not
getting this one to $0 balance will definitely help you
second - call about the BestBuy one - see if you can get a settlement there - pay if off
you have 3 new accounts with their associated Inq - so let them age and work on getting these 2 baddies addressed
What @RSX said is a great place to start and should get you a decent boost I would think.
