Income growing, recession-proof business, and scalable. Complete transition assistance training. Potential of over $1,000,000 per year net profit or more.

That’s how a classified ad reads for any good credit repair business for sale.

If you’re looking for a credit repair business for sale, one way you can save money is through buying a franchise that includes everything you need to run your business. The major reason to buy a credit repair business for sale is to acquire the revenue stream, which is derived from the brand, ongoing operations executing the credit repair files, and referral sources.

That said, in most markets, there are so many other professionals dependent on having clients with good credit (real estate agents, car dealers, furniture and jewelry dealers, even college admissions counselors) that developing referral sources is quite easy. Postcards, flyer drops, “lunch and learns” along with a “mail route” of pop-by’s have all been proven to produce business.

Other aspects of a credit repair business for sale, such as the brand and ongoing operations can be quickly ramped up with less cost than purchasing an associated business in most cases. Equipment required is minimal, and staff can be completely trained in a few days with one online video training and coaching teleconferences.

What would be the price of a business that had over a million dollars per year in net profit? What if you could find a Credit Repair Business for Sale for pennies on the dollar - all you had to do was improve the marketing and hire some help?

Before you purchase an existing credit repair business for sale, we recommend comparing the cost of starting one, using a complete turn-key franchise type system.

As you evaluate your options, we recommend you look for the following components:

- Legal Support. Credit restoration is an ever changing field, and not an exact science. Credit Bureaus evolve their recipe for distilling a credit score, the market produces more people with delinquencies, and creditors change their policies. A good system will provide you with unlimited paralegal support as well as access to a nationally-recognized credit repair attorney for coaching calls, mastermind sessions, and updates on the details of operation of a credit restoration business.

- Online video training. This will allow you to replace staff quickly, scale up your team, and provide access to the latest version of training in this ever-changing field. In addition to video training, coaching calls with other credit restoration professionals can help you learn from others’ mistakes outside your service area.

- Marketing Support. As you look at any credit repair business for sale be sure to consider the marketing in place. Generally, referral relationships are one of the easiest and most consistent sources of business. One upside to referral sources is that of transparent accountability in that you’ll quickly see where the bulk of your leads are coming in from and be able to develop that further. A good system will include brochures, a website, flyers, materials for “lunch and learn” presentations to referral sources or materials for consumer presentations such as real estate offices and religious or civic groups.

When you invest in a credit repair business for sale, you can add this as a revenue stream if you work with real estate, personal services (i.e. taxes, insurance, etc.), or anyone that depends on attractive financing for clients (i.e. mortgage lenders, car dealers).

Note that like any business opportunity, we cannot guarantee your success. That said, we work to maximize your success. Your level of success depends on your work invested, talents, etc. Take the time to fully investigate and make the decision that’s right for you when you look for a credit repair business for sale.

One advantage to this business is that it’s generally recession-proof, because during a soft economy, the base of potential clients increases. Over eighty million americans have bad credit, and millions are willing to pay to get it fixed.

In looking at any business opportunity - including a credit repair business for sale, you’ll want to evaluate a few key areas:

Is the sector or opportunity growing or shrinking? Credit scoring is definitely here for life, and it’s importance continues to grow. Having good credit makes a substantial difference to anyone buying a home or car, getting car insurance in most states, getting a new job, or financing just about anything.

Is it scalable? If you were to buy a conventional brick-and-mortar business like a dry cleaner, often times the only way to increase the business is to open more locations. Investing in a credit repair business for sale means you can help a wide geographic area just by increasing your marketing or sales efforts.

Are you selling on price? This is an area where the right credit repair business for sale really shines: the right system will make you the expert (or your team). You could build this business yourself, but you could end up spending over a million dollars on software, thousands of hours on research, and many thousands of dollars on marketing ideas that didn’t work. Just as there’s a difference between a Porsche and a Buick, your credit repair business will be able to clearly demonstrate your value and therefore command a better price in the market.

Starting a franchise of a credit restoration business, instead of purchasing a credit repair business for sale can save you money and provide a higher rate of return.

I came across some programs offered by, ex-bankers, ex-credit bureau agents that offer tactics and software that enable you to repair your credit. They claim to be able to create a new credit file. Anyone know if they work? What happens to your old credit file?

The Problem of Unrecognized Accounts

Discovering the presence of accounts on your credit report that clearly do not belong to you can be unnerving. If you are the target of identity theft you will need to employ a very specific credit repair solution. But you must explore the nature of the issue before utilizing this powerful credit repair tool. Literally millions of people discover accounts on their credit report each year that do not belong to them. Only a very small percentage of these incidents are the result of identity theft. The vast majority of these events are the result of what are called file merger errors.

File Merger Errors



File merger errors occur when the credit bureaus confuse your credit file with the file of another person and accidently merge their accounts with yours. This can prove to be inconvenient but it is not the result of illegal of malicious activity. Oddly enough, these file merger errors are an accepted side effect of a decision made by the credit bureaus in setting the accuracy requirements for sorting credit data. They have built in a certain margin of error to allow for mistakes in data entry by lenders. This allows lenders to access a consumer’s credit file in cases where some amount of identifying data is missing or in the case where there is a small typographical error.

File Merger Credit Repair Solution

Fortunately, it is easy to determine if you are a victim of a file merger error and almost as easy to resolve it with credit repair without invoking the identity theft laws. Just call the creditor and tell them that you see an account on your report and you need to know if they are really reporting it as yours. If they tell you that they have no record of an account belonging to you it is not the result of identity theft. If this is the case, you will need to submit a simple credit bureau dispute letter listing the erroneous accounts and informing them of a file merger error. On the other hand, if they tell you that it is yours and you know for a fact that you did not apply for the account it’s time for credit repair action.

Identity Theft Credit Repair Solution



The credit repair solution for identity theft is codified in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 605B, and is very clear and simple; follow the instructions, and the identified information will be blocked from your credit report within four business days. All you need to do is circle the suspect item on your credit report, and bring it to your local police station. Tell the police that you are a victim of identity theft and you need an identity theft report to send to the credit bureaus. Theoretically you only need to send this report to one of the credit bureaus as, by law, upon receipt of an identity theft report each bureau is required to notify the other two, but I suggest sending to all three. You must also include identification. I suggest that you include clear copies of your driver’s license and your Social Security Card. You must also provide a written statement that the accounts in question are not yours and do not relate to any transaction entered into by you. I suggest that you have this statement notarized. Bundle all of this together and mail it to the three credit bureaus via certified mail, or if you wish, via FedEx or other overnight service. Once the credit bureaus receive your package they will block the suspect information within four business days.

A Cautionary Note

It is worth understanding what will happen after you initiate this credit repair process. Upon blocking the information from your credit report the credit bureaus will contact the creditors and an investigation will ensue. Identity theft is considered a serious crime and there is a strong possibility that when the culprit is caught they will be prosecuted. There are two major considerations; first, if you think that a family member might be involved, think carefully before using this Section 605B remedy, second don’t ever think of using this process as an expeditious means of credit repair. If you initiate this process and it is later discovered that you have committed fraud, you will face jail time.

You Are Not Alone

Credit repair assistance is available if you need it. Identity theft can be a very disturbing event and needs to be handled properly. If you do not feel up to the task you should contact a credit repair professional. A credit repair expert will help you through the process and insure that everything is done in an efficient and effective manner. Good luck!

I know the income potential is $100K a year, and also you’re helping people rebuild their lives from financial disaster so they don’t have to resort to predatory lending such as cash advances, payday loans, title loans, rent-to-own, and sub-prime mortgages (to name a few). I understand with that said its very rewarding financially and personally. Thank you for all your help.

The credit card crunch has hit consumers at an all time high. Many consumers are desperate and reaching out to many different avenues in their desire to pay off their debt and repair their credit. Many consumers are being scammed by credit repair agencies that are only after their money and have no intention of helping consumers repair their credit.

Do your research on the credit repair company you decide to go with. Make sure the company you choose is backed by an accredited lender and the BBB. Call them and ask them questions regarding how they will be able to help you get out of debt and repair your credit report. Ask them how long before your credit will be repaired and back on the road to recovery.

You should never have to pay an upfront fee for a credit repair agent to help you get out of debt. Some agencies take consumers last few dollars to help them get out credit card debt and then they have trouble again making the monthly payments. This causes the vicious circle of debt to continue to grow and never relieving the consumer from making high payments to pay off debt.

Make sure you get the full details of the programs you are signing up for. What will be the total interest rate or fee that will be applied to your account? If you are looking to repair your credit you need to ask the credit repair agency all about the hidden fees or other long term accruals that the company may apply further down the road. This could actually mean it will take you longer to pay the debt off then it would if you were to pay the balances off on your own.

Try to avoid signing on to services with a credit repair agency if you can help it. Many companies claim they can help you repair your credit overnight and that is not true. With a little time and effort you can repair your own credit by paying your bills on time and keeping your balances low.

Copy what credit repair companies do. Credit repair companies simply work with your creditors and combine all of your debts to create one low monthly payment. By contacting your credit card companies individually you may be able to lower your monthly payments and pay your debt off faster.

Staying away from credit repair agencies and doing what they do for you without having to pay the long term charges is a great way to save money and save yourself the hassle of possibly getting scammed. You need to make sure if you decide to go with a credit repair agency that you do not accrue other debt during that time, it is very important in the recovery of bringing your good credit back to life. Pay your debt off a little at a time and pay the minimum amount due on time is the best way to get your bad credit back on track.

There are so many venues that advertise credit repair services. You will find these ads on the internet, on television and through snail mail.

It is important that consumers learn proper money management early. However, there are a lot of young people that end up getting into so much debt as soon as they get their first credit card. They get offers for these cards when they go to college. They are enticed by the low interest rate and the other things that come with it. What they don’t understand is that if they fall behind in payments, their credit rating will suffer. Before they know it, they will need to look for someone that specializes in credit repair.

Credit repair is used to get your credit back to a level where you can get credit and loans without any issues. While you are working to rebuild your credit, the credit repair services company will advise consumers not to acquire any new credit. Since you may be used to getting credit, you will need to discipline yourself to not be tempted to get more credit cards and loans.

There is no set time as to how long you will have to use credit repair services. It really hinges on how much debt you have and how much you can pay each month to get rid of it. Some consumers have more debt than others. So the ones with less debt may only have a few months to use a credit repair system while others may take a little longer. Even with this, getting involved with a program such as this one is not an overnight wonder. However, the quicker you’re able to tackle this, the quicker you will be able to get out of debt and increase your credit score.
