Credit Score Info
Credit Score Info
A credit score is determined by the following factors:
1) Payment History – 35%
2) Length of Credit History – 15%
3) Types of Credit Used – 10%
4) Amounts Owed – 30%
5) New Credit – 10%
The single biggest factor in calculating your credit score is paying off your bills on time. If you have delinquent accounts that went unpaid for a significant length of time also go into the calculation. When at all possible, pay off the credit card balance on time. Better yet, have it paid 4 – 5 days early to avoid any problem with the mail service or online problem.
The credit scores range from 300 on the low end up to 850 maximum on the current FICO system. The number 620 is the cut off for risk assessment, with anything below that number considered a bad risk (this is the subprime area) for loaning money. The closer you are to the mid 700′s the better off that your credit rating will be since this is the desired area for lending and obtaining the best interest rate.
