Re: Credit App spree

CribDuchess,

 

I am not sure if things have changed, but my VA home loan was with USAA. They were the one's who approved the car and credit card two days after I closed. I was told not to purchase anything or apply until my loan closed and has funded.  For what its worth, my loan funded the same day as closing and I received my earnest money back and my Keys.  Plus, USAA gave me $950 for using their movers advantage/ real estate agent 

 

Even with the additional credit my DTI will still be good. The only thing that would carry a new balance will be a car loan because credit cards only post the balance.

 

Thanks!

CS800, Thanks!

 

Yes, that is my EQ score from here.  I have one medical collection reporting a zero balance. I have had Penfed membership for 7 years. My utilization is 14% and I have never missed a credit payment in my 9 year history. Paid 3 auto loans and I had 20000 in credit before this App spree. Plus my income is very stable and I have large reserves. I guessed all that helped.

 

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

 

Shalom.


Good history with them.
