Pricing Questions

Common Questions About Our Pricing

Straight answers about what you pay and what's included.

We offer three transparent plans: the Emerald Plan at $94.99/month plus a one-time $195 first-work fee, the Maximum Impact Plan at $109.99/month plus a one-time $265 first-work fee, and the Optimum Plan at $995 one-time covering six months of service with no monthly fees. There are no hidden fees — choose the plan that matches your credit goals.
No. All costs are listed upfront with no surprise charges. The one-time first-work fee is shown next to each monthly plan and is charged only after your initial setup and three-bureau audit are performed — never as an advance fee, which the Credit Repair Organizations Act prohibits. What you see is what you pay.
Yes. We usually suggest the Maximum Impact Plan for home buyers because of its 30-day credit score updates and comprehensive monitoring. For buyers who want priority support and a dedicated specialist, the Optimum Plan fits better. We'll confirm which suits your situation during your free consultation — no plan can guarantee loan approval.
It depends on your plan. On the monthly plans (Emerald and Maximum Impact), if we do not remove any negative items from your credit report within 90 days of starting service, you receive a full refund. On the Optimum flat-fee plan, you have a six-month satisfaction guarantee: if you are not satisfied within six months, we keep working your file at no additional charge. Neither is a promise that any particular item will be removed — results vary by credit profile. Full terms are in our Guarantee and Refund & Cancellation Policy.
Yes. There are no long-term contracts and no cancellation fees. You may cancel within 5 business days of signing your contract without charge. After that, on the monthly plans you can cancel at any time and future billing stops immediately. On the Optimum flat-fee plan, we refund the unused months on a pro-rated basis.
We combine consumer-first practices under the FCRA, FDCPA, and CROA with real, personal service: BBB A+ rated, transparent pricing, a local Bakersfield office, and a team that understands federal credit law. We're not a faceless call center — we're your neighbors, committed to honest, ethical credit work.

Common Questions

Expert Answers to Credit Repair & FICO Building FAQs

Educational information only. We do not guarantee deletions, score increases, or approvals. Results vary by credit file, reporting accuracy, and time. Under the FCRA, you have the right to dispute inaccurate information directly with the credit bureaus at no charge. Under the CROA, you may cancel services within 3 business days of signing without penalty.

What is credit repair (and what it isn't)?

Credit repair is the process of reviewing your credit reports and disputing information that may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable.

  • It is: an accuracy-focused dispute and documentation process
  • It isn't: a promise to remove accurate negative items or erase valid debt
  • It isn't: identity fraud or creating false documents — we do not do that

How long does it take?

Timelines vary. Many people see changes in 30–90 days, while more complex files can take longer.

  • Your reporting history, number of accounts, and dispute complexity matter
  • Credit bureaus and furnishers have their own response timelines
  • Building positive history — payments, utilization — often takes time

What documents do I need?

To start, you typically need basic identification and your credit report access.

  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Proof of address — utility bill, bank statement, or lease
  • Your credit reports or a 3-bureau report
  • Supporting paperwork for specific items, if available

What results can I realistically expect?

Realistic expectations depend on whether items are reporting accurately and how your overall profile is managed.

  • Possible outcomes: corrections to inaccurate reporting, updated statuses, or removal of unverifiable items
  • Not guaranteed: deletions of accurate negatives, specific score increases, or loan approvals
  • Best approach: disputes plus rebuilding — utilization targets, on-time payments, fewer new inquiries

Why does your credit report matter so much?

Your credit report affects more than just a score. It can influence approval decisions and pricing across many areas of life.

  • Auto loans and refinancing terms
  • Home loan approvals and interest rates
  • Credit card limits and offers
  • Insurance pricing in some states
  • Rental housing and some employment decisions
