    Your roadmap

    How to Get from 660 to 700

    Estimated timeline: 4–6 months

    1

    Reduce utilization to under 10%

    +20–40 pts30 days

    Below 10% is the sweet spot for FICO. Pay down balances before statement close dates.

    2

    Pay every account on time for 90+ days

    +10–20 pts3 months

    Recent payment history weighs more than older history. Auto-pay minimums to never miss.

    3

    Dispute remaining inaccurate items

    +15–30 pts30–45 days

    Even at this tier, errors are common. Focus on collections, late marks, and incorrect dates.

    4

    Request credit limit increases (soft pull)

    +5–10 ptsImmediate

    Higher limits at the same balance lower utilization automatically. Decline if hard-pull required.

    5

    Add a credit-mix product if needed

    +5–15 pts60–90 days

    If you only have credit cards, a small credit-builder loan adds installment-mix points.
