Keeping Bad Credit Costs More than Repairing it!
Have you ever stopped to think what having BAD CREDIT is costing you? How much have you paid in additional fees due to your poor credit rating? One estimate is that a poor credit rating costs the average consumer $3000 per year or $50,000 in a lifetime due to extra charges that are assessed simply because of a low credit score. Unnecessary deposits, excessive interest, higher insurance rates, lower paying jobs are just a few of the financial hardships faced by those with credit problems. This dollar figure does not include the extreme inconvenience, additional stress, low self-esteem, and loss of dignity associated with being considered a second class citizen in a society that is based on credit worthiness.
Put an end to your credit problems… it costs MORE to keep bad credit than to RESTORE YOUR CREDIT STANDING. Why would you want to pay MORE to have so much LESS???
Automobile Financing: If you are financing a car and have bad credit, you are probably paying thousands of dollars more than you would pay once you had restored your credit. This extra interest shows up every month in a dramatically higher payment. One of the first things that our members often do once they have restored their credit is to refinance their automobile for a fraction of their current payment or buy twice the car at nearly the same payment. Take a look!

Home Mortgage: The” American Dream” of owning your home is out of reach for most people with credit problems. As you see below, even mildly damaged credit will cost a small fortune in additional interest. This forces credit challenged consumers to raise families in less desirable neighborhoods and to pay off someone else’s mortgage for them leaving the credit challenged with only several years worth of rental receipts.
