A new year is upon us, and along with a new year comes a new opportunity to get your credit in order.  But the biggest question you may be asking yourself is, should you get your credit fixed or fix your credit yourself.

That’s an important decision to make, but it doesn’t have to be a hard one.

For starters, no matter which option you take, there are two important things you need to consider.  These things are time and money.  For some, its more important to them to save their time and thus choose to go with a company to get their credit fixed.  For others, their money is more valuable (for credit repair that is) so they choose to do the credit repair themselves.

So which should you do?  It really depends on what you have less of, time or money.  If you have the money, you should look for a reputable company who can give you solutions for fixing your credit.  Be sure to ask all your questions upfront so that you are left certain that they are the right company for you.

If you would prefer someone doing this process for you, two resources that you could look into are Veracity Credit Optimization and Lexington Law.  As always, make sure to ask all you need to know up front before engaging with any company. (These companies are just resources, however, they are completely separate from this site, so we can’t guarantee their work).

However, if you’re considering the alternative and doing the credit repair yourself, then though there are several alternatives out there where you can learn how to fix your own credit, I am a little biased and will recommend my own book, Credit Scoring Secrets Revealed.

Either way, be sure to take action and make 2009 the year that you are financially set free!
