자주 묻는 질문

How long does it take to repair credit?

Simple errors can be removed in 30–90 days, while complex issues like collections or bankruptcy recovery take 6–24 months. Most people see meaningful improvement (50–100 point increases) within 3–6 months of consistent effort.

Can I remove accurate negative items from my credit report?

No, accurate negative items like verified late payments or legitimate collections can't be removed through disputes. They'll age off naturally after 7 years (10 for bankruptcy). Focus on building newer positive history to outweigh them.

Is credit repair legal?

Yes. You have the right to dispute inaccurate items under the FCRA for free. What's illegal is paying someone to dispute items you could dispute yourself, or having someone promise guaranteed deletions or use illegal tactics.

Should I hire a credit repair company or do it myself?

DIY works if you have time and simple errors. Professional services are worth it if you have complex issues, limited time, or want expert guidance. Avoid companies that charge upfront fees or guarantee results.

What's the difference between a credit report and a credit score?

Your credit report is a detailed record of your credit history—accounts, payment history, balances, inquiries. Your credit score is a three-digit number (typically 300–850) calculated from that report. You get free reports annually; scores often require paid monitoring or apps like Credit Booster AI.

How often should I check my credit reports?

Check all three bureaus at least twice a year to catch errors or identity theft early. If you're actively repairing, check every 2–3 months to monitor dispute results and verify improvements.
