Credit scores affect search for apartments

Hi....just wanted to add my '2 cents'. I live in low-income housing, myself. They (Housing Authority) usually check your credit to see if you have any outstanding utility bills (elec, gas,etc). They don't really look at your credit score. ALSO..they check to see if you owe any OTHER Lanlord (s) past rent..that kind of thing. Hope this helps a bit.

My husband and I would like to buy a house in the next year. My score is 628 according to creditkarma. I would like to get it above 700, or at least 660.

From what I can tell my credit report isn't all that bad. I expect it to go up when a negative drops off (a judgment that was wrongly made but I figured it would be easier to let it fall off on it's own then to fight it), and when two hard checks fall off. All three of those things should happen in the next couple of months.

Collection Accounts

Hey everybody just have a quick question to which I've been unable to find an answer on. I have been working on my credit for two months now and after a visit with my broker I was excited to find out that I'm just shy of approval by 28 points. Since then I have successfully "paid to delete" two collection accounts that were reported about four months ago totaling over $600.00. I know it varies greatly but how much do collection accounts really affect your score? Think I'll get the 28 points? Thanks in advance...
