Pierre Money Mart has done a great article on how to build credit when you’re starting from scratch.
Unless you have a co-signer, you have to maintain good credit history to apply for a car loan. Things like secured credit cards and opening up a checking account will help make you look more attractive to a lender.
Having an apartment lease and utility bills in your name will help you establish credibility also.
The site also posts blogs and stories on many different topics related to credit repair, identity theft, credit scores and reports, credit building, etc. Enjoy the article and hopefully you can get some great tips for building your credit so you can buy that car that you want!
