What We Do
We handle three kinds of work. With credit repair, we pull your reports, spot the mistakes and dispute them with the bureaus and creditors. Personal funding and small business funding follow once your file is strong enough for the loan or credit line you are after. Some clients use all three services, and others only need one.
Credit Repair
We find the errors on your credit reports, dispute them with the bureaus and creditors, and track every response until each item is settled.
Personal Funding
We look at what lenders will see on your credit, clean up what we can, then help you apply for personal loans and credit lines at the right time.
Small Business Funding
We check the personal and business credit lenders will look at, tell you what you can qualify for now, and help you apply for funding that fits your plans.
How We Work With You
Most people never get a clear look at their own credit. We show you what is on your reports and tell you plainly what can change and what cannot.
- We tell you what can come off
- Errors, outdated accounts and items a creditor cannot verify are fair game for a dispute. A late payment that truly happened and is reported right usually stays. You hear that at the start, so you are not paying for wishful thinking.
- Every item gets its own line
- Your plan names each account we will dispute, the bureau that reports it and the reason we think it is wrong. It all fits on one page.
- We look at all three reports
- Equifax, Experian and TransUnion often disagree. A collection may appear on one report only, or a paid account may still show open. We compare all three files side by side.
- Funding talk starts with your real numbers
- We check your score, utilization and recent inquiries before any talk of a loan or credit line. Applying too soon can pile up hard inquiries, so we pick the timing with you.
- Meet the way that suits you
- Come in and sit down with us, or handle every step over a call or video chat. You get the same work either way.

What Sets the Price
No two credit files look alike, so no two prices do either. The main questions are how much on your reports is wrong and how many rounds it takes to fix. We cover each point with you before you commit to anything.
After we read your reports and hear what you are after, we tell you the cost. You know what is covered before we start.
- Number of items to dispute
- Three wrong accounts take less work than twenty. Every added item means more letters, more tracking and more back and forth with the bureaus.
- Number of bureaus involved
- One bad entry often shows up on all three reports. Each bureau runs its own investigation, so each one gets its own dispute.
- How messy the file is
- Identity theft means more digging. So does a mixed file, where someone else's accounts land on yours, or a collection that has been sold several times between agencies.
- Length of the program
- Bureaus usually have around a month to respond once a dispute is filed. A few items are gone after one round. Others need a second or third letter, which stretches the timeline.
- Your funding goal
- A personal loan, a business credit line and startup funding each come with their own lender requirements. A tougher target means your file needs more prep first.
Questions Clients Ask
- If a negative item is correct, can it still come off?
- Most of the time, no, and we say that up front. You have the legal right to dispute items that are wrong, outdated or that the creditor cannot verify. Correct, current items generally stay until they age off your report. We spend our effort on what can come off and on steps that lift your score in the meantime.
- How soon will I see results?
- Lots of clients see the first changes within one to two months, since bureaus usually have about a month to respond to a dispute. A file with many items, or one damaged by identity theft, can need several rounds. Once we review your reports, we give you a rough timeline.
- Is there a refund if nothing changes?
- Yes. If no items are deleted while you are actively in credit repair, you get a 100% refund. We go over how that works on your first call.
- Does filing a dispute lower my credit score?
- No. Disputing an item does not pull your score down on its own. When an item gets corrected or removed, your score may go up. Opening several new accounts at once is what usually hurts, so we help you time any funding applications.
- My personal credit is rough. Can I still get business funding?
- It depends on your score and the kind of funding you want. Many lenders look at the owner's personal credit, especially for a newer business. Sometimes it pays to clear a few items first and apply a little later. We tell you which route makes sense.
- How much does credit repair cost?
- It depends on how many items are wrong, how many bureaus report them and how long the work takes. We give you the cost after we review your reports, before you sign up.
- Do I need to visit your office?
- No. You are welcome at our office, or you can do every step by phone and video. Many clients never come in, and they get the same work.
How It Runs, Step by Step
This is the path from your first call to the day you are ready to apply.
- 1
Phone call and consultation
You share your goal, such as a business credit line, a car loan or cleaning up old collections. We ask some questions and book a time to go over your reports.
- 2
Report review
We pull your three credit reports and read every line. You get a list showing what looks wrong, what looks right and what is dragging your score down most.
- 3
Filing the disputes
Our letters go to each bureau, and to the creditor that reported the item when that helps. We log every reply and file another round if an item comes back with no change.
- 4
Progress check-ins
When results arrive, we show you what was removed, what was corrected and what stayed put. We also flag easy steps you can take, like paying a card down to cut utilization.
- 5
Funding when you are ready
When your file can carry it, we go over personal funding or small business funding options that match your numbers. Nobody gets pushed into an application before the file is ready.
