Reading and Understanding Your Credit Report
Did you know your credit score can impact your insurance rates? It can affect your interest rates as well. Your credit can either limit your choices or give you greater freedom. See how easy it has become to pull your own credit report, and to understand what is in it. We will show you how you can pull your credit report for free and understand what is in it. This workshop is featured at the Aging with Gusto Conference held on June 22 at the Caswell County Civic Center. Call Sonya Patterson at the NC Cooperative Extension to register: (336) 694-4158
