Credit Advice to Help You Clean Up a Credit Report

Always pay your bills on time. Starting now.

Restrain from applying for credit frequently-if you're applying all the time this can hurt your credit significantly.

Pay off your credit cards, or at least reduce your balances. Being maxed or close to maxed out will worsen your credit when you're applying.

Obtain more small amounts of credit before applying for a large amount.

Be patient. It can take seven years for negative information to cycle out of your credit report, while bankruptcy remains for ten years. In addition, your most recent activity is factored more heavily than older.
