If you are a first-time home buyer, or haven't owned a home in the last three years, you may be eligible for an $8,000 tax credit from the federal government. This program is expected to end in November 2009. You'll need to act now and we'll assist you in pre-qualifying for this opportunity. There is also a no-down-payment option for any home buyers.

Also available is the Car Allowance Rebate System that is more popularly know as "Cash For Clunkers." The government will offer up to $4500 for a new car if it's more fuel efficient than your old clunker. The program started at the beginning of July and will operate while funding is available.

These incentive programs are great but what if your credit score keeps you from making a new car or home purchase at a good interest rate? You need to access your current financial standing and find answers to help improve your situation. You shouldn't put off dealing with a credit problem. Whether you work with a reliable credit repair company or if you choose to do it yourself, repairing your credit report can mean fewer late payments, and possible foreclosures and bankruptcy. A plan like this will take money and time but it will be very worth it.

So to answer the question "yes" you will see improvement on your credit with DIY credit repair programs. You can remove collection accounts, erroneous reporting's, late payments and misreporting accounts. Depending on the accounts, you can completely remove accounts that are lowering your score. Some claim to give you the tools and understanding to remove larger derogatory problems, judgments', liens and foreclosures.

The great thing about the E-book company providing this offer is that they will note this new credit line with the three credit agencies, and potentially boost your FICO score in as soon as one week. Reports say the increase can be as much as 30 to 60 points. With a better FICO score you have better credit and more purchasing power.
