Essential Knowledge
Credit repair is not rocket science, but it does require a working knowledge of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and access to relevant FTC Staff Opinion Letters issued to provide practical guidance. In addition, you must have a reasonable understanding of the FICO credit scoring model. And if you have any active collections you should understand your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. You will also need to know any statutes of limitation that apply to the debts in question.
