  • New Accounts/Credit Requests – 10%
  • Length of Credit History – 15%
  • Total Debt Percentage – 30%
  • Credit Mix – 10%

The highest credit score that can be obtained is an 850.  Consumers with credit scores under 600 are often considered risky borrowers while borrowers with credit scores of 720 or greater are considered very solid borrowers. Lets make you solid!!

PAYMENT HISTORY

Payment history is 35% and THE MOST IMPORTANT factor.  Pay on time every time!

TOTAL DEBT PERCENTAGE

Total debt percentage 30%.  Keep your debt down.  It’s best to have as low a credit utilization ratio as possible. In short, a high debt-to-credit ratio can mess up (aka drive down) your credit score.

The formula for calculating your credit utilization ratio is pretty straightforward. To figure it out for an individual card, divide your credit card balance by your available credit line. If you’ve only got one credit card and you’ve spent $400 out of a possible $2,000 this month, your debt-to-credit ratio is 20%.
