What Can Happen When Your Credit Score Raises

Thank you Lexington Law Firm for sponsoring this post. Lexington Law Firm’s team understands that a credit score is not just a number; it's a lifestyle.

I did a poll on my IG stories and over 65% of people who voted said they rarely EVER talk in-depth about money to their friends! WHY?

I say this to myself too- WHY don’t I talk about money with my friends? It can be so helpful. It can provide insight. Give us ideas. Help us relate and encourage others.

So today with this community we are going to be talking about credit repair again! And I’m going to share a financial win. And give you an opportunity to potentially have your own financial win!

In my last blog post, I talked about how Dan and I were saving up for a house and therefore I wanted to work on my credit score again. I had worked with Lexington Law Firm a few years before Violet Fog even existed. They helped me bring my credit score out of the toilet. Like really, alleviated so much anxiety for me. At the time I couldn’t even rent an apartment under my name because my credit was so bad.

That time, they got my credit score up to GOOD- which was what I wanted!

But it had been years since I worked on my credit score. Life happens, you know? I’m not just thinking about my credit score every day. Although good practice is to think about it fairly often so we can keep track.

So when it came time that buying a house was looking like a reality, I wanted to contribute more than just financially. I wanted my credit score to help us secure a house we really wanted.

So these last six months, I have been working with Lexington Law to get my credit score from GOOD to VERY GOOD. And that’s exactly what happened….

Also, my Fiance signed up for Lexington Law! Even some of his friends did! And they are all having the best experience.

Credit repair can be so messy and time-consuming! Lexington Law helps so much. They get that the consumer protection laws are COMPLEX. They give consumers the legal right to dispute inaccurate items on their credit reports (how many of us how at least one of those dwelling right now!) with the credit bureaus and individual creditors. They hold your hand and go to bat for you.  They help everyday consumers understand their rights and use the law to fix credit errors. FIX CREDIT ERRORS. That helps your credit score so much.

So my good news that I’m celebrating (and encouraging my friends to work on their credit if it’s impacting their lives) is that my credit score went up enough to help out even more in the house buying.

Another financial win is I’ve saved more money this year than I have in the last five years! I’ve been more loud and proud about living below my means and making it cool! Driving a van, eating most meals from home, learning to do things on my own that normally cost a lot of money. Financial wins (so long as they aren’t braggy) should be celebrated. It’s good to have dreams of being financially comfortable enough to the point where you aren’t full of anxiety all the time.

Another thing I want to note about Lexington Law is they are extremely user friendly. They even have an app that gives you real-time information AND solutions. I feel like this is so necessary with such a technology-dependent world we’re in now. We like our information right at our fingertips and 24/7. It was kind of fun checking my app here and there and seeing my credit score creep up.

I say make the dive and look into it if credit is something that you know you need to be working on but can’t find the time to do it or you feel intimidated by it. That’s me. I’m not interested in credit so I need someone to be interested for me. I don’t have the time to “learn what I need to do” so I just need someone to do it for me. It’s balance in life! And I freaking love this company because they really delivered on their promise to me.

Twice.
