I’m building my credit from thin to strong and want to leverage it the right way for funding and business credit. I’ve also started building a relationship with VyStar Credit Union (checking + savings + direct deposit), with the goal of positioning myself for a strong auto loan approval and better rates through them.
🔥 REAL QUESTION:
What should I do NEXT with a thin but clean profile like this?
• Add more primary tradelines?
• Lower utilization more?
• Go for auto loan soon or wait?
• Start business credit now?
I’m trying to move strategic, not waste time — any real advice helps 💯
