Oftentimes borrowers don’t have any credit card debt or open lines of credit and this can hurt their scores. For these types of clients it’s recommended they open a secured credit card with a min balance of $300-$500. Problem is where can they get one of these? A simple and easy place for borrowers that need help badly is at capital one.
Here is another link with a list of cards for people with bad-fair credit if the capital one doesn’t work- just make sure it says they report every month to all 3 bureaus.
