Hate To Wait, Speed up the Buying & Renting Process

1. Check your credit report immediately.
It can take weeks to correct errors and months to improve your scores. You need to know what is on that report NOW. You are now entitiled to a Free Credit Report once a year from each of the three credit reporting agencies. One strategy is to ask for a different report from a different agency every 3 or 4 months. However, we recommend that you request the Equifax Report and pay for the score that goes with it so that you can see what the Mortgage Companies and Apartment Managers will see. Go to http://www.annualcreditreport.com/ to order your free credit report.

2. To buy using a VA Guaranteed Loan, you must first qualify.
Go to http://www.homeloans.va.gov/ to start the process

3. Choose a new Internet Service Provider before you get there.
Then give out your new e-mail address to friends and your current duty station.
