Consequences of Having Less Than Perfect Credit
Your credit score is a critical measure of your credit standing used by creditors who want a assessment of your risk potential as a borrower. The higher your score, the lower risk of a default. 60% of Americans are paying MORE for items financed, because they do not have a 740 FICO score. Second Chance Credit LLC can help you save money by getting your FICO credit score to 740.
