How Will Your Scores Improve?
These are reasonable expectations
Below is a list of negative items that may appear on a consumers report. Take note of the estimated point increases in credit scores according to
- Repossessions: 30 to 80 points. These are typically the hardest items to remove, as most are accurate additions to your credit report if you default on a car loan or other debt. They typically stay on your credit report for seven years, but there are ways to remove them early.
- Late Payments: 5 to 60 points. Late payments report as either 30 days late, 60 days late or 90+ days late. The longer you go without making a payment, the greater the impact on your credit score. Sometimes, you can negotiate with your lender or credit card issuer to remove the negative item if you become current on your payments.
- Hard Inquiries: 5 to 20 points. The more inquiries you have on your credit report, the greater the impact. To experience the full 20-point boost, you’ll likely need to remove several inquiries.
- Charge Offs: 15 to 75 points. A charge off is similar to a default. When a lender sells your debt to a collection agency, it charges off the loss and marks your account as inactive.
- Foreclosure: 30 to 75 points. This is possibly the worst item to have on your account, other than a bankruptcy. Foreclosures typically reveal a large loss for the lender — which is something that future prospective lenders will definitely take notice of.

- Court Judgments: 10 to 30 points. Surprisingly, many court judgments never make it to your credit report. That’s because many states and counties have varying levels of access to public records that make it easy (and legal) for debtors to list the judgment on your public fi
