7 Reasons for Low Credit Scores

Late Payments

  • Your credit history accounts for about 35% percent of your credit score.

Defaulting on Payments

  • If you don’t pay your credit card bill your accounts become in default.

Charge-Offs

  • Your accounts become written off by creditors when they think that you are not planning to pay your balances.

Collection Accounts

  • Creditors can hire or sell your delinquent debt to third-party debt collectors to try to obtain a payment from you.

Judgments

  • When a court system forces you to pay a debt. An unpaid judgement is much worse than a paid judgement.

Filing Bankruptcy

  • A way to clear debt that you can not pay.

Foreclosures

  • A legal process where your mortgage company obtains ownership of your home when you don’t pay your mortgage.
