Consumers are Using Credit Repair to Fix Their Credit Reports and Optimize Their Credit Scores

    MaiMai News - May 27, 2005 - "People are finding out that credit is affecting almost every aspect of their financial lives" says Scott Brown a fair credit reporting advocate and author of a web site named "Credit Repair" (http://selfhelpcreditrepair.blogspot.com).

Credit repair information is in high demand these days and for good reasons. Deleting negative items on your credit report can save you hundreds of thousands dollars in mortgage interest alone. With your credit rating affecting other things such as insurance premiums, credit card and auto apr's, getting an apartment, or even getting a job, it could be financial suicide not to optimize one's credit report.

Until recently doing credit repair was left up to attorneys or services that specialized in it.

"Credit repair has been a well kept secret. Until the last 4 or 5 years consumers were left in the dark when it came to understanding their credit reports and credit scores" Scott goes on to say.

Scott also attributes much of the thirst for credit knowledge to Identity Theft which affected nearly 10 million consumers last year.
