A new  Brighton business hopes to offer a local fix for  a national problem, poor credit.

PA-CA Enterprises owners Janeth Castro and Bill Patterson said they are in business to help people with credit repair, clean up their reports and raise their credit scores. They also offer services to help small businesses with bookkeeping and payroll.

The City of Brighton and community members welcomed the new business with a ribbon-cutting ceremony May 18.

"It's critical to have what they do in town. Credit repair is something that's so vitally important, and is well needed with education," Brian Engel, Chairman of the Brighton Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors said.

Patterson said they offer different services that can help small businesses with up to six employees with their books and things like that.

"The credit repair is really what we're passionate about, between COVID and other things that have happened over the past few years, people really want to buy a new house and new car. If they have some nicks on their credit, we'd love to help them fix it," Patterson said.

In addition to credit repair, they also educate people about credit.

"We teach people ways to not only build their credit but things not being reported to the credit bureaus so that we're educating them on how they can help themselves," Patterson said.

"The financial education teaches you how to make a realistic budget and understand your credit card payments," Castro said.
