How fast does credit score improve and by how much?
by Author on Tuesday, July 6th, 2010 | 4 Comments
i currently have 499 credit score and that's because i stayed behind on some car and credit card payments. i currently owe 4k total in 2 credit cards and 2k on my car payment. if i was to pay it all off within a week (i have the money) how much will my credit score improve? and after how long can i buy something (either a house or car)? do i have to wait for years, months?

your score might improve by 50 points at the most. it will probably take you 2 years to get the credit score above the 650 range.
you will get some improvement but not much. the scores will come up over time with ON time payments and keeping the c/c balance well below 30% of the limit at all times so if doing this 1 year at least

Personal experience, 2 years and 100 points. Don’t close those credit accounts, you need a long credit history, keep those balances low 2 credit cards and a car payment showing paid should boost you enough to qualify in a few years.
