Might be time to learn more about buying a home
DebtFreeIn04 posted a topic in Mortgages,
Currently
Live in South Carolina, fico 8's 708,714,717. Credit card utilization 35%, late pays 6.5 yrs ago only thing holding score back. Salary 114,300.
I'm not in a rush but when the time is right maybe 1 year or so would like to know best first actions, e.g. talk to mortgage broker for pre approval etc?
Im currently 61, Due to alot of bad decisions i didn't buy first home till 6 years ago, no mortgage, promissory note with relative. Now life is heading in a good direction. Have know idea if it's a good idea to entertain moving to a nicer place. Or what things to consider. I'll probably be working for a good 8 years if all is right with the world lol.
I have 1.25 acres the double wide is 20 years old in decent condition. One question is move to nicer area, or maybe buy new modular /double wide on the existing property ? My ego wants me to buy new place would like 5 acres and a dwelling.
I appreciate being able to post this y'all have been very helpful and it helps to get this in print instead of my brain.
Note the zesimate for my place and surrounding area has gone up quite a bit.
Oh shoot one more thing I have a va loan benefit I've never used.-

About To Refi - New collection
usermi posted a topic in Medical Billing & Medical Collections,
Hi guys,
I hope this is not going to affect me to much doing my refninancing, I was checking my fico.com account and I have a new collection! It turns out that it was a medical bill that I thought I had paid but there was a balance of $71, the collection agency is FIRST FEDERAL CREDIT CONTROL, I talked to someone in there and she said if I make payment they will request to delete it from the bureaus (which will take about 3 months). I asked her to put it in writing and she said the best they could do it put a line on the email
So basically she sent me an email with an attachment (the contents below), and a little note below the attachment that said "will be removed from credit once paid in full", will this be enforceable to have them delete if they don't follow thru with their promise to delete? I guess if they actually delete I can show a letter from the collection agency to the bank that the mark has been requested to be deleted? the email is from ann@ffcc.com at least it's a company email.

NFCU as Main Checking Account
Journeyjeans posted a topic in Credit Forum,
Hi all! Not sure which board to put this is, Admins & Mods please feel free to move where you deem appropriate. 🙂
I am thinking (vacillating lol) about making NFCU my checking account for my wife and I. I know they are *excellent* for credit, but how about for checking?
I like them because they seem to have a reasonably large enough free ATM footprint, and I read somewhere that they can ATM Fee Rebate up to $10 for ATMs outside of their network. (I have to find out how to sign up for this.)
How is their customer service? How is their security against hacks? How is their willingness to solve problems? What about their website uptime? (I have never noticed a downtime issue with their website, but maybe you have?)
Thank you for your insights!-

If he/she had just paid off an account a month ago, for example, two months ago doesn't reflect the true situation. I have had that sort of situation work in my favor in the past, though. -

It's not unheard of that a creditor will rely upon an earlier AR pull to make a CLI request decision. Out of curiosity, why do you state the related score was "inaccurate"? -
AMEX should lower their fees for the Platinum by at least $150 annually. When significantly fewer people are travelling, what good is the aviation travel based card at full price? -

Both old and new mortgage company tax forms were posted at about the same time last week. Look like it'll be later in the month before ADP will have our W2's posted. I didn't earn enough interest to generate any 1099-INTs this year.
