Why Use A Business Mentor

Business advice needs to be delivered right on time. It’s also important that any business advice you receive be based on real life business experience. When you are running a business it can be lonely, particularly when you are running a business as a sole director or proprietor. Sound business advice from a business mentor comes with a different perspective which is vital for business growth. Whether you're working alone or on a board of ten, a non-emotional insight can be just what your business needs.

Business growth and activity often stall for minor reasons. If you are looking for a business mentor who can work with you to help maintain activity, then get in touch with us today. Not only will your business mentor give you high level business advice, you will also get someone who can get actively involved to maintain momentum. A business mentor offers high level business advice for a part time rate.

Credit Checks 101: What to Know

 

If you plan on purchasing a home, leasing a car or taking out a loan from a local bank, there's a good chance they are going to do a credit check. One bad ding on your credit report can mean higher interest rates or no loan at all. This is why it's very important that you check your credit file at least once a year to make sure that everything is 100 percent accurate.

What a Credit Report Includes

When a bank or lender checks your credit report, this is the information that will be included in the report:

Personal Information: This will include your name, previous addresses, your date of birth and previous employers.

Credit Inquiries: Any time that you have filled out a loan or credit card application in the past, this is going to show up. These are just inquiries and it won't show if you were accepted or denied.

Overdue: Overdue payments are a big one that lenders look at it. It also will bring down your credit score a bit. If you have any sort of overdue bill, it will show up here. Even if you have paid this bill off in the past but caught up with payments, overdue payments could still show up.

Bankruptcy: Any bankruptcy that has been declared in the past seven years will show up here.

Judgements: Any liens or judgements can show up. This can include past child support payments, wage garnishment and liens against your home.

Default: Failing to pay your loans can mean that the lender will default on your loan. If the bank defaults on your loan, this can show up even if you decide to pay the bill off in full.

Keep in mind that negative marks will stay on your credit report for up to seven years. After that seven-year mark, serious infringements will be removed.

Check your Credit Report

Now that you know what's on a credit report, it's very important that you get a copy each year. Even if you don't plan on applying for a loan, you will want to make sure that everything is 100 percent accurate. One error and this could mean that your future loans could be denied.

To get your credit report, it can be done in a few different ways. For starters, you can check this out if you want to get your credit rating information fast and securely. When you download your credit report information, be sure to print out your own copy just in case you can't retrieve your downloaded report.

When you retrieve your credit report, the company will ask for a few personal details. This is going to include your name, date of birth, license number, addresses where you have lived, a phone number and your place of work. Once this information has been imputed, the credit report agencies may ask some confidential questions on loans in the past. For example, they may ask a multiple choice question that relates to your current car loan carrier. You must answer these correctly to gain access to your report.

Reading your credit report is laid out in a very easy to read format. Take a few minutes of your time, and make sure that you read over it closely. Look at each account, and try to look for any errors. If there are any errors, you will want to contact the credit reporting agency to set things straight.
