Unlock the Secrets to Boosting Your Credit Score

by

Low Credit Score Loans in Seattle WA
  1. Decode Your Credit Reports and Scores. Your credit reports are like your financial DNA. Regularly check them for any hiccups. The three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—provide free weekly access at AnnualCreditReport.com. If you spot errors, dispute them like a pro.  Your bank and credit cards likely offer credit score tracking as well for free for you to check anytime you log in.
  2. Master the Art of Timely Bill Payments. Picture this: paying bills on time as your secret weapon. Late payments? Not on your watch! Consistency here is key. Your credit score will thank you with a virtual high-five.
  3. Slim Down Those Credit Card Balances. Think of credit utilization as a tightrope act. Aim to keep it below 30%. High balances? They’re like extra baggage—ditch ’em! Show lenders you’re a lean, mean credit machine.
  4. Flex Those Credit Limits to improve your score quickly. Politely ask for higher credit limits on your existing accounts. This creates better debt utilization numbers without having to pay down balances.  It’s like leveling up in the credit game. Just remember low balances are your sidekick in this superhero saga.
  5. Zero Balances, Maximum Impact. Surprise! You don’t need a balance to boost your score. Open accounts with $0 balances and a pristine payment history are like unicorns—rare and magical. 🦄
  6. Avoid the New-Account Frenzy. Opening too many accounts? It’s like binge-watching a season of “Credit Score Drama.” Each inquiry can ding your score. Be picky—only swipe right on credit cards or loans you truly need. Six months minimum between new accounts and preferably one year unless necessary. 
  7. Dust Off Those Unused Accounts. Don’t Marie Kondo your credit history! Keep old accounts open, especially if they’ve been well-behaved. Positive payment vibes matter.  FYI, more credit cards are offering a credit lock feature for you if you have misplaced your card or are not currently using it for added security.

Mike made the mortgage process as pain free as possible! My last mortgage application experience was anything but -- I remember being on the phone with the loan officer constantly, always needing to push things along, correct errors, and generally being constantly frustrated. I felt confident leaving everything in Mike's hands. But Mike was always available at a moment's notice to answer any questions and to grease the wheels. He dealt with sometimes difficult situations so we didn't have to. Mike is well worth every penny! Thank you, Mike!

Mike is incredibly knowledgeable and super helpful. I needed help with a second mortgage refi, on a rental property. He took the time to help me even after I ended up using my credit union that I already had a relationship with. When it comes time for us to buy another property Mike is our man!

Mike has proven invaluable in my first-time home-buying experience. I've had many questions about many aspects of the process, and he's always been ready with an answer. He is prompt, informative, and resourceful. If and when I do this crazy, property-purchasing ritual again, it'll be him I message.

Mike Peacore and Blue Square Mortgage were great. The current process for obtaining a mortgage is daunting with increasing additional scrutiny from lenders amid a rising interest rate environment. Mike was with us all the way through the process, pointing out ways in which we could speed the process and save money through it all. He was always available, even nights and weekends and worked diligently to get us answers to questions we asked. I highly recommend Mike and Blue Square and if I ever need another mortgage, will call on him. He provides the sort of customer service you don't see anymore. He is fantastic!

We had a great experience working with Mike, and successfully completed a cash-out refi under less than ideal circumstances. He was communicative and professional, and rolled with the punches as we trudged through this while giving birth to our second kid. So far, Mike is the best mortgage lender in Seattle that we’ve worked with.

Mike Peacore is the most helpful person I have ever met. We were first time home buyers in 2020 and Mike talked us through everything. He would send us a document and instead of us reading through it alone, he would call us and go through it together. Every step was so easy with Mike. When we were confused about anything or had questions Mike was there with an answer or the connections to find the answer. AND...This week 3 years after we bought our home, we had questions about our escrow and property taxes. We called Mike and a problem we dealt with for over a year was settled in a few hours because Mike is that good. He is kind, helpful, resourceful, and even gave me a recipe when I told him I liked to bake but am newly GF. He is just an amazing person, and your home buying experience will be smooth sailing if you use Mike at Blue Square Mortgage.

Mike is 100% the person you want to go too for your mortgage needs. I had a tough lending situation and he did not stop working on my case until he was able to resolve my lending requirements. He will dig in and research for the best mortgage options for your specific situation and needs. I love to work with someone like Mike. He really put forth time and effort as if he was getting himself a mortgage. 5 stars for Mike all day.

We refinanced our mortgage with Mike and recommend him highly! He found us by far the best rate around, and walked us through every step of the process in a friendly and accessible manner. He explained things to us when needed, and was always thinking a step ahead to make sure the process went smoothly and there were no surprises. We feel lucky to have worked with him. Thank you, Mike!

I have worked with Mike as a lender for several years. Our partnership with buyers, Mike as the lender and myself as the REALTOR are 100% successful and the buyers are consistently thrilled with results. Mike works hard to get the best rate possible for the buyers, helps educate everyone on market knowledge and helps make the process go smoothly from start to closing. The buyers that I work with appreciate having as much market information as possible - I find this is a great approach to helping buyers feel confident to find the best home for their housing needs/wants. I look forward to many more successful transactions with Mike!

Mike did an amazing job helping me set up a loan to purchase my home. Mike had a personal touch and it felt like I had someone on my team helping me the entire time. He got me a lower rate than the other lenders I was looking at going through and he made the whole process simple and easy. The best part was that we ran into a number of complications along the way and Mike worked hared to find solutions every time to make things work out smoothly. I highly recommend Mike and feel lucky to have found him to work with on my loan.

This is our second time working with Mike and we could not be happier. Mike is personable, ethical, professional and absolutely knows his stuff. We had a wish list for our refinance (lower payments and interest rate plus funds to renovate) and he accomplished everything we wanted so we're thrilled. Mike's a treasure. Work with him.

As a first time home buyer, I really appreciate how transparent and patient Mike was. Even before he knew that I would choose him as my mortgage broker, he was willing to walk me through every single aspect of the home buying process and let me know what to expect from other brokers/lenders. I specifically told him to give me all the details, keep track of all of the milestones/deadlines, and provide frequent reminders. At first the information he provided was a little overwhelming, but he understood that I would ask a lot of the same questions down the road. The process went very smooth and even on signing day he offered to be there in person with me since my realtor was on vacation. In summary, I really appreciated the transparency, how he was never pushy for my service or if he needed anything from me, the clear and detailed information he provided, and the friendly and patient service that I received.

We had a few hurdles along the way, but he was always positive and super responsive to all of my questions. Not only did he lock me in at a great rate, but I was continually impressed by his knowledge and accommodating attitude. He was a true professional, and you can tell he truly cares about customer service. Couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. 5-stars!!!!

Sean was fantastic through our VA refi. Blue Square's rates were the most competitive of the companies I screened, and the application could not have been easier. I probably spent less than 5 total hours on the refinance, saved my family hundreds per month, and I very much attribute that smooth process to Blue Square's and Sean's attentiveness. I have already recommended them to peers and would wholeheartedly recommend giving them a call to see what they can do for you.

I just closed and recorded and I wanted to thank Kathy S. for her excellent service and support and for giving me the best deal ever. I am getting looks of disbelief when I tell people, especially those with conventional loans who can’t even come close!With Kathy, every question was answered and there were no surprises, except the good kind. No weirdness, everything disclosed.I've purchased and sold and refinanced a number of times, it's usually a stressful experience even without having to move. Not this time.Prior to dealing with Kathy and Blue Square, I had previously used a broker a couple of times before, whom I considered excellent and I was very happy with. With that said, if I ever need another loan, I will come to Kathy and Blue Square first. Without a doubt.And I will be recommending Kathy to anyone who needs a loan, especially those in the VA IRRL category.Again, thank you Kathy for all you did!

I contacted Blue Square based on a Google search for VA IRRRL.

As a first time home buyer, I feel extremely lucky we went with Mike at Blue Square as our mortgage broker. He was professional, thorough, and more than happy to answer all of our questions about the process. His rate and fee estimates were considerably lower than other lenders we considered. He worked nights and weekends during the closing process and we wound up closing early. I look forward to working with him on a refi and eventually our next home purchase!

I found Mike online by searching online to see what mortgage brokers came highly recommended in the Seattle area. I was not disappointed! He worked fantastically with my real estate agent. Made the whole process super simple. And not only did we close on time, we closed early (25 days after our offer was accepted)!! He negotiated the PMI with the lender based on credit score so I have an incredibly low monthly PMI! And in the week of escrow, my monthly payment came down by about $40. I couldn’t be happier with his service. He was quick, attentive, very responsive, and easy to work with. I highly recommend him!

Mike Peacore was incredibly professional and easy to work with. During our recent refinance, we weren’t sure of our exact timeline, and he never pressured us to move forward before we were ready. Once we did make a decision, he helped us act quickly and secure a good rate. Throughout the entire process, Mike was always accessible and responsive, friendly, and constantly looking out for our best interests. I would highly recommend Mike and Blue Square Mortgage.

Mike Peacore at Blue Square Mortgage helped make the refinance process hassle free. He has great rates, provided fast service, quick responses to our questions, and accurate information about the process and specific details. Mike is knowledgeable about all the things we needed to know about market values and mortgages. We live in Bellingham--90 miles north of Seattle--but that distance was a non-issue. It was as convenient as it would be if we lived in Seattle.

I just can't say enough good things about Mike Peacore and his dedication to his clients. Mike found us financing after a bitter experience with a high profile broker who turned us away after glancing at our financials: the issue being years of self-employment. With Mike's assistance, we were able to follow our strategy of buying a smaller place before marketing our existing home. Five stars aren't enough!

In short, Blue Square Mortgage was the driving force on my home closing. Mike, at Blue Square Mortgage was referred by a friend who had worked with Mike on prior home purchases. Mike worked tirelessly with my fiance and I to ensure that we were getting the best possible mortgage rate for our first home purchase. His business acumen and industry experience was easily identified in our first phone call, where he explained the in's and out's of lender proceedings for a first time home buyer. Mike is an expert is what he does, and brought a very personal touch to a transactional process. There is no doubt I will be working with Mike and Blue Square Mortgage again when the time comes to purchase a new home.

I really enjoy working with Mike--he helps keep the mortgage and borrowing intimidation factor to a minimum, and it becomes much less confusing. I've called him to just talk through the market and what may be possible in terms of future borrowing. For our last home purchase Mike was great at searching for the best rates and loans for us and he even advising us to hold off for a few days as even better rates may be around the corner--and they were! We locked in a great interest rate as a result!

I have used Blue Square for years and Mike is consistently up to speed on rates, what banks/credit unions are doing and why to use certain ones and not others, and always helpful. He will not only coach you through the process, but if you are not an attorney and are not super detailed, this is your company. He makes sure you understand (in regular terms) what the sheets are for and how the process works....GREAT experience.

I would like to highly recommend Mike Peacore and Blue Square Mortgage for the exceptional service and finishing two mortgages for me in the last six years.Mike helped me get my first mortgage on a townhouse in Puyallup and then fast forward to this year when I became eligible for a HARP (re-finance) loan he made it happen. Originally I had gone to Wells Fargo (the loan holder) but after 4 months of wasted promises, I called Mike - and all the reasons Wells said I couldn't qualify and they couldn't make it happen - MIKE DID IT!I should have called Mike in the first place, but thought I had to go to the current loan holder - Silly me - he got me a great rate, he was informative, patient and gave it everything he had to make this happen. He got done in TWO MONTHS what Wells could not do in four...Don't go anywhere else - if you need assistance with your mortgage, first home, investment property, re-fi - whatever. Mike can help you!

We had a great experience working with Mike, and successfully completed a cash-out refi under less than ideal circumstances. He was communicative and professional, and rolled with the punches as we trudged through this while giving birth to our second kid. So far, Mike is the best mortgage lender in Seattle that we’ve worked with.

I contacted Mike for advice on refinancing my mortgage and found him extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He responded quickly and answered my questions and concerns in a clear and straightforward manner. He was very easy to talk with and I feel very confident in his advice and recommendations. I definitely recommend him for your mortgage needs.

Mike Peacore is the most helpful person I have ever met. We were first time home buyers in 2020 and Mike talked us through everything. He would send us a document and instead of us reading through it alone, he would call us and go through it together. Every step was so easy with Mike. When we were confused about anything or had questions Mike was there with an answer or the connections to find the answer. AND...This week 3 years after we bought our home, we had questions about our escrow and property taxes. We called Mike and a problem we dealt with for over a year was settled in a few hours because Mike is that good. He is kind, helpful, resourceful, and even gave me a recipe when I told him I liked to bake but am newly GF. He is just an amazing person, and your home buying experience will be smooth sailing if you use Mike at Blue Square Mortgage.

Mike was very knowledgeable and kind about the homebuying process. He slows down and communicates such a complex process in a way that the average person can understand. Home Buying can be very stressful, but with Mike helping you a lot of that stress is taken away! Highly Recommend his services :)

Mike is 100% the person you want to go too for your mortgage needs. I had a tough lending situation and he did not stop working on my case until he was able to resolve my lending requirements. He will dig in and research for the best mortgage options for your specific situation and needs. I love to work with someone like Mike. He really put forth time and effort as if he was getting himself a mortgage. 5 stars for Mike all day.

We refinanced our mortgage with Mike and recommend him highly! He found us by far the best rate around, and walked us through every step of the process in a friendly and accessible manner. He explained things to us when needed, and was always thinking a step ahead to make sure the process went smoothly and there were no surprises. We feel lucky to have worked with him. Thank you, Mike!

I have worked with Mike as a lender for several years. Our partnership with buyers, Mike as the lender and myself as the REALTOR are 100% successful and the buyers are consistently thrilled with results. Mike works hard to get the best rate possible for the buyers, helps educate everyone on market knowledge and helps make the process go smoothly from start to closing. The buyers that I work with appreciate having as much market information as possible - I find this is a great approach to helping buyers feel confident to find the best home for their housing needs/wants. I look forward to many more successful transactions with Mike!

Mike did an amazing job helping me set up a loan to purchase my home. Mike had a personal touch and it felt like I had someone on my team helping me the entire time. He got me a lower rate than the other lenders I was looking at going through and he made the whole process simple and easy. The best part was that we ran into a number of complications along the way and Mike worked hared to find solutions every time to make things work out smoothly. I highly recommend Mike and feel lucky to have found him to work with on my loan.

This is our second time working with Mike and we could not be happier. Mike is personable, ethical, professional and absolutely knows his stuff. We had a wish list for our refinance (lower payments and interest rate plus funds to renovate) and he accomplished everything we wanted so we're thrilled. Mike's a treasure. Work with him.

As a first time home buyer, I really appreciate how transparent and patient Mike was. Even before he knew that I would choose him as my mortgage broker, he was willing to walk me through every single aspect of the home buying process and let me know what to expect from other brokers/lenders. I specifically told him to give me all the details, keep track of all of the milestones/deadlines, and provide frequent reminders. At first the information he provided was a little overwhelming, but he understood that I would ask a lot of the same questions down the road. The process went very smooth and even on signing day he offered to be there in person with me since my realtor was on vacation. In summary, I really appreciated the transparency, how he was never pushy for my service or if he needed anything from me, the clear and detailed information he provided, and the friendly and patient service that I received.

We had a few hurdles along the way, but he was always positive and super responsive to all of my questions. Not only did he lock me in at a great rate, but I was continually impressed by his knowledge and accommodating attitude. He was a true professional, and you can tell he truly cares about customer service. Couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. 5-stars!!!!

Sean was fantastic through our VA refi. Blue Square's rates were the most competitive of the companies I screened, and the application could not have been easier. I probably spent less than 5 total hours on the refinance, saved my family hundreds per month, and I very much attribute that smooth process to Blue Square's and Sean's attentiveness. I have already recommended them to peers and would wholeheartedly recommend giving them a call to see what they can do for you.

I just closed and recorded and I wanted to thank Kathy S. for her excellent service and support and for giving me the best deal ever. I am getting looks of disbelief when I tell people, especially those with conventional loans who can’t even come close!With Kathy, every question was answered and there were no surprises, except the good kind. No weirdness, everything disclosed.I've purchased and sold and refinanced a number of times, it's usually a stressful experience even without having to move. Not this time.Prior to dealing with Kathy and Blue Square, I had previously used a broker a couple of times before, whom I considered excellent and I was very happy with. With that said, if I ever need another loan, I will come to Kathy and Blue Square first. Without a doubt.And I will be recommending Kathy to anyone who needs a loan, especially those in the VA IRRL category.Again, thank you Kathy for all you did!

I contacted Blue Square based on a Google search for VA IRRRL. Mike was very helpful in explaining the parts of the refinance process to me and helping me understand not only what everything means but also how and why he is able to offer lower rates than most of the big name lenders. I look forward to doing business with Mike again.

As a first time home buyer, I feel extremely lucky we went with Mike at Blue Square as our mortgage broker. He was professional, thorough, and more than happy to answer all of our questions about the process. His rate and fee estimates were considerably lower than other lenders we considered. He worked nights and weekends during the closing process and we wound up closing early. I look forward to working with him on a refi and eventually our next home purchase!

I found Mike online by searching online to see what mortgage brokers came highly recommended in the Seattle area. I was not disappointed! He worked fantastically with my real estate agent. Made the whole process super simple. And not only did we close on time, we closed early (25 days after our offer was accepted)!! He negotiated the PMI with the lender based on credit score so I have an incredibly low monthly PMI! And in the week of escrow, my monthly payment came down by about $40. I couldn’t be happier with his service. He was quick, attentive, very responsive, and easy to work with. I highly recommend him!

Mike Peacore was incredibly professional and easy to work with. During our recent refinance, we weren’t sure of our exact timeline, and he never pressured us to move forward before we were ready. Once we did make a decision, he helped us act quickly and secure a good rate. Throughout the entire process, Mike was always accessible and responsive, friendly, and constantly looking out for our best interests. I would highly recommend Mike and Blue Square Mortgage.

Mike Peacore at Blue Square Mortgage helped make the refinance process hassle free. He has great rates, provided fast service, quick responses to our questions, and accurate information about the process and specific details. Mike is knowledgeable about all the things we needed to know about market values and mortgages. We live in Bellingham--90 miles north of Seattle--but that distance was a non-issue. It was as convenient as it would be if we lived in Seattle.

I just can't say enough good things about Mike Peacore and his dedication to his clients. Mike found us financing after a bitter experience with a high profile broker who turned us away after glancing at our financials: the issue being years of self-employment. With Mike's assistance, we were able to follow our strategy of buying a smaller place before marketing our existing home. Five stars aren't enough!

In short, Blue Square Mortgage was the driving force on my home closing. Mike, at Blue Square Mortgage was referred by a friend who had worked with Mike on prior home purchases. Mike worked tirelessly with my fiance and I to ensure that we were getting the best possible mortgage rate for our first home purchase. His business acumen and industry experience was easily identified in our first phone call, where he explained the in's and out's of lender proceedings for a first time home buyer. Mike is an expert is what he does, and brought a very personal touch to a transactional process. There is no doubt I will be working with Mike and Blue Square Mortgage again when the time comes to purchase a new home.

I really enjoy working with Mike--he helps keep the mortgage and borrowing intimidation factor to a minimum, and it becomes much less confusing. I've called him to just talk through the market and what may be possible in terms of future borrowing. For our last home purchase Mike was great at searching for the best rates and loans for us and he even advising us to hold off for a few days as even better rates may be around the corner--and they were! We locked in a great interest rate as a result!

I have used Blue Square for years and Mike is consistently up to speed on rates, what banks/credit unions are doing and why to use certain ones and not others, and always helpful. He will not only coach you through the process, but if you are not an attorney and are not super detailed, this is your company. He makes sure you understand (in regular terms) what the sheets are for and how the process works....GREAT experience.

It was my first refinance and he is so knowledgeable and able to answer all of my questions. He stays on top throughout the whole process and his communication is right on point. He is just a really really great person to work with!!

I would like to highly recommend Mike Peacore and Blue Square Mortgage for the exceptional service and finishing two mortgages for me in the last six years.Mike helped me get my first mortgage on a townhouse in Puyallup and then fast forward to this year when I became eligible for a HARP (re-finance) loan he made it happen. Originally I had gone to Wells Fargo (the loan holder) but after 4 months of wasted promises, I called Mike - and all the reasons Wells said I couldn't qualify and they couldn't make it happen - MIKE DID IT!I should have called Mike in the first place, but thought I had to go to the current loan holder - Silly me - he got me a great rate, he was informative, patient and gave it everything he had to make this happen. He got done in TWO MONTHS what Wells could not do in four...Don't go anywhere else - if you need assistance with your mortgage, first home, investment property, re-fi - whatever. Mike can help you!
