2.Analyze your negative factors
Looks for items on your credit report that are negatively affecting your score. The most negative items are:
LATE PAYMENT — your score can be affected by any late payment, but the more often the issue occurs, the greater impact
COLLECTION ACCOUNTS — you lose points if you default on an account and it goes to collections.
HARD ENQUIRIES — Hard enquiries occurs when a lender checks your credit. Each hard enquiry can affect your score in a small, temporary way.

4.Plan how to address accurate negative items
You can make a positive difference with your credit score by addressing any negative items or your report that are accurate. Getting caught up on your payments may help you in the future. Revolving open collections and other issues may also help.
5.Build a positive payment history
In order to build a positive payment history, prioritize making timely payments on any existing debt you have, including any kind of loan.
