Put Your Best Foot Forward
Consumers everywhere routinely access their credit reports as part of their overall financial management. What is in your credit reports produces your "credit score" which has a direct impact on your ability to get the best loan rates possible. It can often be the first indication that you may be a victim of identity theft. Your credit report can also impact your employment, housing, insurance premiums, and other areas. Fortunately, it is now easier than ever to obtain and monitor your credit reports.
