  • Here’s EXACTLY How to Repair Your Credit Yourself (Step-by-Step)

    👉 In this episode you’ll learn: Most credit repair companies aren’t going to show you exactly what they do behind the scenes—but I am. In this 40 minute episode, I walk you through the entire process of repairing your credit yourself, step by step. I’ll explain what credit repair actually is, how to read your credit reports, what negative accounts to look for, how to identify potential errors or inaccuracies, how to dispute them, what to include in your disputes, how to respond when the bureaus respond, and what to do next. I’m giving you the same foundational knowledge I use as a credit repair business owner so you can understand the process for yourself—without having to hire a credit repair company. I’ll also explain why having access to accurate credit reports and ongoing credit monitoring is so important throughout the process.

  • Did You Have a Credit Acceptance Repo? Settlement Explained

    👉 In this episode you’ll learn: Did you have a car repossessed by Credit Acceptance? A $694M multistate settlement says qualifying accounts must be deleted from credit reports.

    In this episode I break down who qualifies for repossession deletion relief, the loan dates and internal-score rule, the Nov. 2, 2026 stop-collection deadline, and what to do if you had a car repossession with CAC. Plus what this means for credit report repair going forward.

    Settlement basics: filed Sept. 17, 2026 by NY AG plus 39 other states and DC, covering about $634M in debt forgiveness plus $60M restitution. Qualifying loans started Nov. 1, 2015 to Nov. 30, 2025, were still open Dec. 1, 2025, and CAC must ask the bureaus to delete them.
