17What Factors are Used to Calculate Credit Scores
Posted By: Ramon Rivas on June 17, 2010 at 6:35 pmIn the US, your credit rating is extremely important. Having a good score opens doors for you and an unsatisfactory score will slam them in your face. Your credit score actually represents the risk that the lender assumes in order to loan you money and determines how big your loan can be. So what are the factors that help calculate credit scores?
1. Payment history. The record of payments you have made to all of your creditors is the biggest factor (35% of your score) that’s taken into consideration when figuring out your credit rating. It doesn’t take much to lower your rating. Even late payments take their toll. Of course, missed payments and defaults on debts will make a bigger mark. Any bad marks on your credit report will stay there for seven years, with generally no exception. Even if you’ve paid off the debt, it will most likely not be erased from your report until the 7-year period is up.
2. credit card usage ratio. Your credit card usage ratio (30% of your score) compares the amount of credit you have available to you to the amount you are using. Your score is better (higher) if you are not using all of your credit. If you think that paying off an account and closing it is a good idea, think again. That could actually drop your score in this department. The best solution is to have several accounts open and not use all of them. This is viewed upon as an advantage by potential lenders.
3. credit history length. How long you have been using credit is another issue when it comes to how to calculate credit scores–it accounts for about 15% of the total. Again, if you remember that your credit score is what lenders are looking at to determine your loan eligibility, you can understand why this is important. They tend to view someone who has long credit history and a few marks against him/her as more favorable than someone with a short, perfect credit history. This is a good reason to have your kids start making credit history early (and in a responsible way with your guidance).
4. credit variety. This makes up about 10% of your score. Believe it or not, it helps your score if you have many types of debt (credit cards, mortgage, car loans, etc).
5. Your stability. This includes how long you’ve been at your job, how solid the job is and how long you’ve been living at your current address. If you’ve been at your address for less than three years, this is viewed as less than stable.
Now you know what factors are used to calculate credit scores. Understanding them is important because it allows you to take action on certain aspects that you have the power to change. Hopefully you can use these guidelines to establish good credit or bring your current credit score up a notch or two.

14Best Cash Back Credit Card Means Money In Your Pocket
Posted By: Ramon Rivas on June 14, 2010 at 10:02 amMany people miss out on the opportunity of getting the best cash back credit card simply because they didn’t realize that getting that type of card was an option. In truth, these types of credit cards are fairly common, but they aren’t all the same. Each company will have it’s own specific benefits for their credit cards. To get the best deal for you and your situation, you will have to be willing to spend some time to find the best fit for you.
Here are a few things to keep in mind as you look for a card:
1. Find several banks that offer this type of credit card, most every bank will have some version so at this point just make note of the top 5 or 6 so it doesn’t get too overly complicated.
2. Next to each of the cards on your list make note of what the percentage of cash back you will receive as well as how many points need to be accumulated before you can get a cash back payment. Also make a note of any special restrictions each card has. Some cards will offer a higher reward for certain purchases. If this is the case consider how often you’re likely to make that particular type of purchase. If you only get a high percentage cash back on items you hardly ever buy, you might want to keep looking.
Also take into consideration whether or not there is an annual fee, what that fee is, and whether or not you feel comfortable paying a fee.
3. Once you’ve gotten a basic list than you can whittle it down by looking at which card pays the most cash back percentage and also has the least number of points required for a cash back payment.
4. What are the interest rates of all the cards on your list? If one or more of the cards are offering an introductory rate make sure you know when that rate will expire and what it will go up to at that point. If everything else is the same, it’s usually a good idea to go with the card that has the lowest interest rate.
5. Make sure you carefully read all the fine print with any card you are considering. It’s also important to note if the card has restrictions on what you can use your cash back for. If your purchases are limited to things that you don’t actually buy that often, it won’t do you much good.
When it comes to your finances there is no such thing as being too careful. You have a lot of choices when it comes to which type of credit card to get. Don’t rush this decision or sign up for whatever offer you happen to get in the mail. Instead take a little time and use the tips I’ve given you to find the absolute best cash back credit card for you, your goals, and your lifestyle. That way your credit card can be a helpful financial tool, not a heavy anchor.
foreclosure auctions are a legal activity prevalent in American and European countries. These days a lot of real estate investors are showing interest in foreclosure auctions because of the increased number of properties up for auction. This will in turn result in buying properties at reasonable prices. Many people buy houses in foreclosure auctions for either self occupation or merely to make profit out of it.
The first stage of foreclosure is something like this. The owner of the mortgaged property begins to miss payments. He receives notifications from the lender regarding the missed payments. If the owner continues to default, the lender begins preparations for filing the foreclosure, during which the owner may try to sell the property. If for some reason the sale of the property fails, the pre-foreclosure or default phase terminates.
The foreclosure auction occurs after the default phase has ended. The lender decides to regain its losses by selling the property to the highest bidder in the auction. The amount received from the sale is received by the lender who initiated the auction in the first place. Any additional amount is spent on any other expenses or liens on the property. The rest of the amount after resolving all encumbrances against the property is given to the home owner. foreclosure is the best place to buy houses at great bargains.
foreclosures can be classified as judicial and Non-Judicial, the main difference being the time taken by the lender to foreclose the defaulted loan. Judicial foreclosure is longer than the Non-Judicial process. In a Judicial foreclosure, legal instruments called mortgages are issued and the whole process takes place through court. In the latter process, deeds of trust are issued, and the title remains with the lender as long as his payments have been settled. The lender also has the power of sale by which the trustee can sell the property quickly and thus recover the collateral of the lender in timely manner.
homes can be bought at the pre-foreclosure phase also and is something which happens quite so often. Once the foreclosure has been filed the property is in public records. Interested buyers can be a helping hand for the distressed home owners. In most cases, the owner is dealing with a negative event in his life that has caused him to fall behind in his mortgage payments. Adding foreclosure to the credit history of the home owner will make buying another home or establishing any sort of credit a tough task for a long period of time.
Buying directly from the owner for an amount higher than the mortgage balance will end up in the owner receiving more than that he would receive through an auction because of the fee and expenses involved in the process of reaching the stage of auction. If the amount received from the highest accepted bidder cannot pay off the lender, then the owner is liable for the deficiency which may result in garnished wages, seized assets and potentially even federal income taxes. Negotiation with the owner is a critical factor in the pre-foreclosure phase. Even though it might not be an attractive deal for the buyer, the relationship he builds up with the owner may result in many other investment opportunities. A proper analysis of the property is also required before making a pre-foreclosure deal. The amount you agree upon must benefit you as well as the owner in the best possible manner. Before closing the deal the title must be thoroughly verified for clarity and only then the money should be released. Agreements wi ll be signed and you will end up having the satisfaction that you made a deal below the market rate and the owner will have a relief of paying off the mortgage.
