The Honest Math Behind Credit Repair

Let's be honest: credit repair costs money. But the return on that investment is enormous. The difference between a 580 and a 720 credit score on a $350,000 mortgage is approximately $430 per month, that's $154,800 over the life of the loan.

But we'll also tell you when it's not worth it. If your credit report is accurate, or your negatives are about to fall off naturally, we'd rather lose a sale than lose your trust. Use the calculator below to see your personal numbers.
