Credit repair is the process of identifying and correcting inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, duplicated or unverifiable information on your credit report to improve your credit score. This may involve disputing incorrect entries with credit bureaus, negotiating with creditors to settle or remove negative accounts, and developing strategies to build or rebuild positive credit habits. The goal of credit repair is to present a more accurate and favorable credit profile, which can help you qualify for better loan terms, lower interest rates, and overall financial opportunities.

The duration of credit repair varies depending on each individual's credit situation.
