So why is credit repair so necessary today?

The information in your credit report is reported by lenders doing business with one or more bureaus and put into what is more or less your electronic credit history file folder. This file of data is called your credit report.

Over the years, as more information has built up in credit reports and faster decision-making has been found to result in more sales, lenders have increasingly looked for shortcuts in the underwriting process that still offer protection from bad lending decisions. This need was met by the credit score, a shorthand version of all the information in your credit report. The credit score predicts the likelihood of your defaulting on a loan. The lower the score, the more likely you are to default. The higher the score, the better the odds for an on-time payback. This is where credit repair becomes so useful.

Aside from the obvious increase in borrowing costs and maybe a hassle getting a credit card; what are the very real costs of bad credit? The extra interest you have to pay is only the tip of the iceberg. The real cost of bad credit is in reduced opportunities, family stress, and having to associate with lenders who, more often than not, see you as a mark to be taken for a ride and dumped before you do it to them. And, believe me, they’re better at it than you are.
