Since my family and I just recently moved to a new state we are looking to buy a home. It has been so stressful moving our little family and now are finding somewhere new to live. When we find a new home one thing I don’t have to stress about is our credit score. My husband and I are really on top of making our payments on time, not having high credit card balances, and keeping an eye on our accounts. Even though my husband and I try to keep ourselves up to date, and educated about what our credit score is sometimes things can happen that are out of our control. It seems like identity theft is becoming more common, and it scares the heck out of me. I work hard to keep my finances organized, and my credit score high. In two seconds it can be destroyed by someone else. It is insane how fast identities can be stolen.
Did you know that credit monitoring is not proactive identity theft protection? I had no idea and I thought just monitoring our credit scores was enough. Thankfully there is LifeLock to do all the hard work to protect me and my family.

I am still on the fence with this one. I think its always valuable to be extra careful as a habit with these things.
