  1. Thanks for your write-up. I would also love to comment that the first thing you will need to do is verify if you really need fixing credit. To do that you will need to get your hands on a replica of your credit profile. That should never be difficult, because the government mandates that you are allowed to receive one free of charge copy of your real credit report on a yearly basis. You just have to request that from the right men and women. You can either look into the website for the Federal Trade Commission or contact one of the main credit agencies directly.

  2. I’m so impressed by the level of detail and research that goes into each post on this blog.
