Hi all, I have been doing a lot of reading on the boards today and I came across something that is scaring the heck out of me!! BUCKETS....I am concerned that this will happen to DH and I as we are about to get financing on a Construction Loan!!
Our scores are going up nicely.. DH is in the low 700 range mine are 680's (middle FICO's). Both of us have had a large boost recently from paying util down from 90% to under 10% (though not all CRA's are reporting this info yet) We have seen upwards of 80 point jumps, so far!!
And, DH was hoping to be above 720 and I was hoping to be above 700...when our scores get updated with the new util %
I guess I am afraid that the floor is going to come out from under us RIGHT BEFORE we let our banker pull our FICO's.
I have seen it posted somewhere on here that people w/ BK's top out at 740 or so...this is where we had hoped to top out...now I'm not so sure.
When you top out of your bucket...do your scores ALWAYS drop?
Any reassurances out there???? Anyone????
Thanks so much for any help you could give us
takin' it one day at a time
