Step-by-Step: How to Rebuild Your Credit After Debt

These steps apply directly to your situation as a Denver resident dealing with Radius Global Solutions.

1

Clean up your credit reports first

Before building new credit, dispute every inaccuracy on your reports. Inaccurate collections, wrong balances, or duplicate entries drag your score without valid reason. Use annualcreditreport.com to pull all three and dispute errors.

2

Open a secured credit card

A secured card requires a deposit (usually $200-500) that becomes your credit limit. Use it for one small recurring expense each month (like a streaming service) and pay the full balance on time every month. This builds positive payment history, which is 35% of your FICO score.

3

Become an authorized user

If a family member or close friend has a credit card with good payment history and low utilization, ask to be added as an authorized user. Their positive history can appear on your credit report immediately.

4

Reduce your credit utilization

Credit utilization (balance ÷ limit) is 30% of your FICO score. Keep every card below 30% utilization — ideally below 10%. If you have a $500 limit, keep your balance below $150 at all times.

5

Let time work for you

Negative items (collections, late payments, charge-offs) stay 7 years from the date of first delinquency. They impact your score less over time. After 2 years of positive history, you'll see significant improvement. After 4 years, most people achieve good credit despite past issues.
