    00:02

    talk about credit and I'm gonna do a

    00:04

    series of credits so we're gonna talk

    00:06

    about having no credit zero nothing so I

    00:09

    had a young lady she called me up I had

    00:11

    to go get a secured credit card and that

    00:13

    secured credit card with the bank that

    00:15

    she went to ask for $300 on that $300

    00:19

    account I told her to max it out the

    00:20

    very first month 300 utilization done

    00:23

    paid off the next five months she was

    00:27

    only allowed to put $100 each month on

    00:29

    that credit card and pay it off see what

    00:33

    happens is that a mortgage it takes six

    00:35

    months for it to show up

    00:36

    not beforehand now you may see Credit

    00:39

    Karma you may see your credit card and

    00:41

    it's showing up but for a mortgage

    00:43

    purposes it's six months so anyways

    00:46

    we're going along we get to the six

    00:48

    month and I pull her credit report on

    00:50

    October 9th and she has a 708 boom she

    00:55

    got approved for conventional got

    00:56

    approved for FHA 3% down all day long

    01:00

    that's what I did so I just want you to

    01:02

    know that's how you have to do it now

    01:04

    remember when you're looking at credit

    01:05

    Carmen these other places it's not the

    01:07

    same as when we pull a mortgage it's a

    01:09

    different on the credit scores but

    01:12

    they're good because it gives you a

    01:13

    range and on these different sites you

    01:16

    can see how it can build up so I'm

    01:18

    01:21

    01:26

    people just don't believe in the credit

    01:28
