665 Credit Score

Is 665 a Good Credit Score?

A 665 FICO® Score is considered “Fair”. Mortgage, auto, and personal loans are somewhat difficult to get with a 665 Credit Score. Lenders normally don't do business with borrowers that have fair credit because it's too risky.

The good news?

Repairing your credit is one of the best ways to fix your situation, and unlock the happy lifestyle you and your family deserve.

A 665 Credit Score means:

• Credit Rating: Fair
• Loan Options: Limited
• Loan Cost: Very Costly
• Best Option: Credit Repair

How Long Does It Take To Get A 665 Credit Score?

It depends where you started out.

If you have poor credit starting out, this score may be easy to reach, once you remove any bad marks on your credit. Three collection accounts, for example, could drop a 800 credit score well below 600.

If you started out with weak credit (for example, you don’t have any revolving accounts), a single negative mark could lower you well below the 500s.

How To Get Above 665 Credit Score

If you want a score above 665, you’re going to have to make sure you have as little negative accounts as possible (usually meaning 1 or less), a good credit mix, an aged revolving account (such as a 2+ year old credit card), and a low revolving balance (below 30% utilization).

How To Improve A 665 Credit Score

Work on removing all negative accounts such as collections, charge-offs, medical bills, bankruptcies, et al.

Remove as many excess hard inquiries as you can. Get your revolving utilization as low as you can (0 being best, but the general rule is below 30%). Ensure you have a good credit mix of installment loans and revolving accounts.

Last but not least, make sure you have at least two revolving accounts older than 2 years (getting added as an authorized user to a friend or family members credit card can help!)
