Credit Report

What is a credit report?

A person's credit report is simply a record of how he or she pays his or her bills. Creditors or lenders will pull your credit report before they offer you a loan or credit. They need some indication that you are a safe bet for them to lend money to. Your credit report contains most of the information they need.

A person's credit report shows his or her entire financial life on paper. Examples of what a credit report contains are:

  • social security number
  • current and past addresses
  • employments
  • loans
  • credit cards
  • mortgages
  • other debts
  • late payments
  • collections
  • liens
  • bankruptcies
  • foreclosures

If your credit report shows many delinquencies, a bankruptcy, or more loans than you are capable of paying, creditors will view you as a bad credit risk. Since you are judged in many ways almost entirely on the basis of your credit report and Credit Score, you need to make sure that your credit report is accurate and as positive as possible.
