Today, the average filer is older and married, has a high school education and makes less than $30,000 a year. • Age at Bankruptcy • Since the early 1990s, bankruptcy has been used with increasing frequency by older individuals. While more senior citizens are declaring bankruptcy, a decreasing percentage of filers are younger than 25. • In 2007, those younger than 25 made up less than 2 percent of all filers, down from 11 percent in 1994. In the same time period, the percentage of filers age 55 or older more than doubled; those filers now account for about 20 percent of all bankruptcy petitioners. • These fluctuations caused the median age of bankruptcy-seekers to increase from 38 to 45 years old. 73% of filers have a job or are self-employed 27% make more than $30,000 a year 94% graduated from high school 30% are 35-44 years old

  31. HOW TO “SPEAK” TO THESE BUYERS“IT’S EMBARASSING – DON’T WANT TO OPEN UP”

  32. ARE BUYERS LIARS?

  33. GIGO

  34. Your Credit Score DNA Your credit score is a number based on the information in your credit file. The higher this score, typically the easier your access to lower cost credit. 770 or higher Excellent credit 700 to 770 Good 640 to 700 Fair 580 to 640 Poor Below 580 Your access to credit of any kind is very unlikely

  35. What is a credit score and how is it made up? • A credit score is a numerical expression based on statistical analysis of a person’s credit file to represent the creditworthiness of that person. • There are 3 main bureaus that evaluate your credit history and report your information to potential creditors – Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. Most bank lending takes all 3 credit scores provided and uses the middle credit score. • Credit Scores Range from 300-850. For most home loan financing you need a minimum mid credit score of 640. • Your credit score is made up of 5 components: • Length of credit history • Payment history • Amount you owe on credit • Types of credit used • New Credit

  36. HOW TO READ A CREDIT REPORT

  37. What you may not know about your credit • Paying collection accounts that are already on your credit file will most of the time lower your credit score • The quickest way for an individual to build their credit score is through the responsible use of credit accounts reporting on your credit report • You do not need to carry a balance on credit cards for them to report positive on-time monthly payments – they have to report “paid on-time” whether you use that card during the month or not. • The only date that matters on a credit file, with regard to debt and the weighting of debt on a credit file, is Date of Last Activity (DLA). DLA is controlled by the consumer – it is the date the consumer last made payment or a charge on an account. The statute of limitations (how long an item can remain on a credit file) is tied to this date specifically. • Creditors can choose to report to specific credit bureaus or not – creditors do not have to report to the credit bureaus if they don’t want to. To report your information to the credit bureaus creditors are charged a fee. • Credit cards if used properly are the strongest asset in helping you build your credit score

  38. How to Improve Your Credit Score • Verify accounts are being reported correctly and challenge improperly reported accounts. • Pay down all credit card or revolving debt balances as close to zero as possible. • If your credit report contains negative events (like collections), allocate resources to the most recently reported negative events. • Negative items are a score-killer. Act quickly to discuss problems with creditors before they become delinquent accounts. • Always ask for a deletion letter when negotiating payment or settlement of negative events/collection accounts. • Add positive trade lines and use them responsibly. • If you have a limited budget, negotiate for what credit pros call “payment for deletion,” where the creditor agrees to mark your credit report positive after receiving the money. • Never close credit accounts randomly
