Why you're here

If any of this sounds familiar, a strategy call is the next step.

Most clients book their first call feeling some version of this. The diagnosis is rarely what they expect, and the path forward is always more concrete than they imagined.

  • 01

    Denied credit and no one explained why

    A consultant reads your report the way a lender does. We'll show you exactly which factor sank the application.

  • 02

    Collections or late payments dragging your score

    We diagnose which items are likely disputable under FCRA and map your action plan.

  • 03

    Ready to buy a home but the score isn't there yet

    We'll map your path from current score to mortgage-ready, with a timeline you can trust.

  • 04

    Tried other companies and felt unheard

    Consulting is different. You're in the room for every decision because every decision is yours.

  • 05

    ITIN holder and banks act like you don't exist

    Our ITIN advisory covers what most firms don't even know exists.

  • 06

    Identity theft items on your report

    We'll educate you on the §605B and §609 protocols and coach you through execution.

  • 07

    Paying high interest, know you deserve better

    Every 50 points cuts your APR. We'll tell you which 50 points to chase first.

  • 08

    Want to build generational wealth

    Credit is step one. Consulting is how you map the rest.

Founder & Lead Consultant

Mariangela Dominguez

Founder, Finance by MD

I built Finance by MD because I watched too many families in my community get stuck, denied for a home, a car, the life they worked for, and told it was their fault.

It's rarely their fault. Most of the time, nobody ever sat down with them, in a language they trusted, and walked them through how the system actually works.

That's what I do now. I consult with families on their credit. I diagnose, I strategize, I coach, and I teach. My clients make every decision. My job is to make sure every decision is informed.

Good credit is not a score. It's a door. My job is to help you open it.
