Will an unpaid parking ticket hurt my credit score?
I got a parking ticket for $35 but I lost the ticket so I don't know who to pay it to. How many points will it take off my credit score? It's stupid that I was even ticketed so I'd rather not pay it off and I don't need to get a loan or anything like that right now. I'm just curious about how big of a deal this could become.

What affects my credit score more, a short sale or a foreclosure?
I know both foreclosures and short sales damage your credit score, but how much better is it to sell a house at less than what it is owed on it versus living in it until the bank takes it from you?

How long will it take to get my credit repaired?
Home prices and interest rates are really low where I live but according to some sites I've looked at, I'd need to increase my credit score by about 70 points to get a good rate. People are saying that home prices are going to start to go up again this summer so I want to know if it would be possible to repair my credit score in a couple of months so I can get into a house before prices go up.

Can using a credit repair company hurt my credit score?
I don't want to repair my own credit and am willing to try a credit repair company as long as they don't make things worse. I figure if they don't do anything, I'm out a few bucks and I've learned my lesson. My only concern is if they make my credit score worse, then I'm actually better off doing nothing.

Do credit repair companies work?
All the credit repair companies say their services work and there are a lot of people on the internet who say they have used a credit repair company to raise their credit score, but there are also a lot of people who say that all credit repair companies are scams and that they don't work. What is the truth? I need help with my credit but I don't want to get screwed out of a bunch of money.

I signed up with Lexington Law about 1 1/2 years ago at the suggestion of a man I did not know as I was waiting in line at the bank. He heard me talking about my bad credit, and how my life had literally been ruined and I couldn't even get an apartment. He told me about Lexington Law on the internet and told me he had signed up and that it was the best thing he had ever done. He explained that it would take more than a year, maybe longer but that it would be well worth the investment and that slowly, over time, it would become apparent that my credit history really was improving. I have made bad choices in my past that directly affected my credit. However, I have matured and knew I needed to do something legally but was afraid I could never afford an attorney to clean up my credit. ... moreCarol
