No fast way to do it… pay your loans on time and you will get your credit up.

Get a copy of your credit report from transunion. Look for the negatives, and dispute them. Good luck.

Take out a small cash loan. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,000.

Don’t spend the money, and use that thousand to pay back the thousand and use your own money to pay the interest.

just pay your bills. Jeez, not that hard to figure out how to get better credit. you just have to pay when they ask you.

No, you don’t keep getting credit cards. If your cards are paid off you could close the extra one. You want a good debt to credit ratio, but you also don’t want too much credit out there.

The next thing you can do is go through your credit report and look for anything that doesn’t look right. Then challenge it. Credit scores do not change overnight if that is what you are looking for. Do not use your credit cards at all for the couple of weeks before your application.

there is a reason your score is 570. There may be open collections that if paid will do it in 24 hours. Just get proof and submit it to your loan officer and have him or her get you re scored
I do this all the time for clients
