Look into Dave Ramsey, that’s what my husband and I did. We did that for about a year and then we had 8mo left to be debt free. recently we decided to borrow off of our 401k pay off our debts and let our credit sit for a few months (it takes a few months for your credit score to increase - the credit calculations look to see if you’ll fall into the same trends debt/income ratio etc when compiling your score
Credit
My husband and I are trying to buy a home but his credit is too low. He has some debt that he needs to take care of and we are working on paying it off as I just go a new job.
But here’s the thing. He has 4 collections. If we pay them off, will they come off his credit and raise his score or will they stay there for 7 years? Should we pay off the collections first or the bills that are not in collections? All of this is really stressful and confusing
