Do You Have a 'Thin File'?
Howard Dayton and Rich Roszel tell you how to 'fatten up' your credit file and create a healthier credit score. Then they answer listener questions at (800) 525-7000 and MoneyWise@Compass1.org:
- "We're planning to build a new home soon - at what point should we sell our current home?"
- "Can you help me understand a 'charge off' on my credit report?"
- "I'm facing either a foreclosure or a short sale of my home - how do I decide the better way to go?"
- "What's the best approach to paying off multiple debts?"
- "How can I help my young adult son become a better money manager?"
Mentioned on today's program was the credit report website, 'AnnualCreditReport.com' and the credit score website, 'CreditKarma.com'. Be sure to check out the Compass website for a complete listing of helpful resources and radio archives.
