Your credit score is usually a number between 300 and 900. The higher the number, the better the credit score. Improve your credit score by: paying bills on time, saying under your credit limit, reduce your credit balance, lengthen your credit history, and limit credit checks.
The topics of creditworthiness and credit history are constantly at the forefront of people’s minds when applying for or renewing their mortgage. The world is full of people from different walks of life, so it goes without saying that we’re all in a different situation when it comes to debt. Some have very little debt, with different combinations of credit cards and few trade lines (like student loans). Some of us may have none, which isn’t always great. There are ways to use credit and debt strategically, and make it work in our favour!
