Improve Your Personal and Business Credit Using UCC Filings
Aiman Zul asked:
Credit improvement using UCC filings:
Any document that is filed with your state is considered a public filing. That document is now public knowledge. Anyone can search through these public records and find these documents/information.
Credit bureaus are connected to a public filing database that updates every 24- 72 hours. They automatically receive all liens and bankruptcy information after it is filed at the county state or federal level.
UCC stands for Uniform Commercial code. UCC filings is a VERY powerful tool in improving both business and personal credit. The amazing thing is that most people do not know about this technique. Well. most people do not even know that you do NOT need a lawyer to incorporate a business. Lawyers might charge you up to 4 times more than if you incorporate yourself. There are many such examples, lawyers being paid for something that can easily be done yourself. You will be amazed how easy some of these things are.Moreover the purpose of UCC filings is NOT to build credit – the credit building part is a by-product. If you really think about it, most credit building methods are just that.
What you have to understand about UCC filings is that they are not new. Public filings, in one shape or form, have always been around. UCC filing basically shows the public that a collateral is being held between parties for an agreement between the parties. So if I get into a monetary agreement with you I can file a UCC to give details of the collateral that will secure that agreement.. Of course when the UCC is filed it will be public knowledge and any good data collection agency or credit beauru will pick that up. That is when the “fun” starts.
For now, long story made short, UCC is a form of public filing that will help you develop both your business and personal credit. As the collateral is released and the UCC eventually terminated your credit will improve. This is true for both personal and business credit. The effect is similar to getting a bank loan and paying it off.
Personally I think that this method will work for another 1 to 2 years max. I believe that this “loop-hole” (for the lack of a better word) will eventually close. Remember at present anyone can file a UCC and the requirements are not that hard to meet. This is very similar to when people could improve their credit by becoming authorized users of another persons credit card. Even if they had bad credit a mere phone call would make them authorize users. I remember witnessing a person build a 5 year credit history by getting his friend to make him an authorized user on one of his cards. Of course the “trick” became common practice and now that method is almost obsolete. You can still become an authorized user BUT it does not effect your credit the way it used to. There is a good chance that UCC filings would follow the same pattern (for credit repair that is) but for now I believe that any intelligent person should make full use of this method. Knowing the law and than using the law is the “way” of the corporation. Both personal and business credit can be improved using UCC filings.

Personal Credit Report – Credit Reporting Data From Many Sources
Hector Milla asked:
A personal credit report is a document that every person over the age of eighteen with a social security number has. When people open accounts or get issued loans their social security numbers are placed on file so that the history follows them for many years to come. In order to survive long term financially, people need to ensure that the data that is coming from sources is accurate or problems can arise.
Many sources report consumer data to the three major reporting credit bureaus about consumer credit information. Credit card companies, banks, courts, collection agencies, student loan lenders, mortgage servicing firms, etc. When a person makes a payment, this is directly reported within a few days of the check being cashed by the financial institution.
Every payment that consumers make or miss typically gets reported because most people have consumer accounts, loans, and other liabilities that need to be paid on time every month. A person’s financial rating depends on their amount of debt, open accounts, delinquencies, bankruptcies, and payment history. If a person has let too many payments lapse then their scores will be considerably low and they will be considered a risk to lend to. Many financial institutions pull their customers’ credit data report on a monthly basis. If a person has a bad rating then these companies can reduce money borrowed, increase interest rates, and deny additional cards from being issued. This can really impact wallets and checkbooks everywhere.
If people find inaccuracies in the data that is reported then they should dispute the negative items to the company that has issued the report. It is important to keep apprised on if the negative items were resolved because a few errors can reduce the overall score. Now even opening a cell phone account, getting Internet and cable access, and moving into a new apartment or home require a check of credit history so staying organized is crucial.
If you want to improve your scores you need a credit reporting service. This also helps to protect consumers from identity theft because it lists all the accounts that a consumer has in their name. Identity thieves commit fraud by stealing social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, and other forms of personal information to open new accounts without their victims’ knowledge. Prices are completely reasonable and negligible $15-25 per month for consumer reports and it is well worth the financial investment to ensure financial solvency.

Every time you apply for credit or a loan, potential lenders use this report to see how you use credit and how much of it you have available.

Your credit report also shows any current credit that you have. This includes amounts owed, amounts available, like on a credit card or other form of revolving credit and payment amounts on installment loans.
When lenders evaluate your loan request they use the information on this report to generate your credit rating. The higher this rating, the more likely you will receive the loan and at more favorable terms. If you are planning on applying for credit anytime soon, it’s a good idea to take a look at your credit report before the people reviewing your application do. This will ensure that you aren’t caught off guard by any unpleasant surprises that may be on your credit report.

Credit Counseling – What Can I See in My Credit Report?
Mark Andrade asked:
Your credit report contains a snapshot of information about you and your credit history and can have a major impact on your life. Although each credit reporting agency formats and reports this information differently, all credit reports contain basically the same categories of information.
Personal Unique Identifying Information.
This includes your full name, any known aliases, current and previous addresses, date of birth, social security number, current and past employment information, plus similar information about your spouse when applicable. Usually it’s up to you to update this information and it does not apply in credit scoring calculations.
Account Information.
The accounts you have with banks, retailers, credit-card issuers, utility companies, and other lenders are listed by type of loan such as mortgage, student loan, revolving credit, or installment loan. Lenders report the date the account was opened, your credit limit, account balance, monthly payment, any co-signers, and payment history on each account you have established with them.
Account Inquiries.
Inquiries appear on your credit report when you apply for a loan and you authorize the lender to request your credit report. The list will include the names of everyone who accessed your credit report within the last year, or two years if the request was employment related. The report will differentiate between “voluntary” inquiries, triggered by your requests for credit, and “involuntary” inquires, such as when lenders order your report to determine your creditworthiness for a pre-approved credit offer.
Public Record Information
Credit reporting agencies are allowed to collect and report on public record information from state and county courts. This public record information includes bankruptcies, foreclosures, lawsuits, wage attachments, tax and other liens, judgments, and, in some states, overdue child support.
Collection Items.
Information on overdue debt from collection agencies is typically included on your credit report.
You are entitled to receive one free credit report every 12 months from each of the nationwide consumer credit reporting companies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This annual credit report can be requested through AnnualCreditReport.com or by contacting the companies directly by phone or by mail.
To process your request, you will need to provide specific personal information, such as your name, current and previous addresses, telephone number, social security number, and date of birth. Also, to verify your identity, other information such as a copy of your driver’s license, utility bill, or bank statement may be required. Keep in mind that the three large credit bureaus do not necessarily share information with each other. The content of your credit report can be different at each bureau, so it’s a good idea to request copies from each one.
