Recent Inquiries Just As Bad As A Collection On A Report

I have a clean credit file as far as collections and baddies go. But because of too many recent inquiries companies don't want to come near me right now. Not complaining because I know it's my own doing. I'm just saying. Man do they stick it to ya for inquiries despite your good payment history.

True, but the effect will dissipate over time. Hopefully you got some good TLs out of the INQs.

With this it will be ymmv for most people.  With a sub 700 score, you can be denied for too many INQs.  If you had a score of 760 with the same number of INQs you might not be getting the denial letters.

Impact of inquiries can also vary by credit profile.  Generally speaking they're more of an issue for thinner profiles versus established profiles.  They're definitely not as bad as collections.  Inquiries taper and fall off much faster.  Collections are much worse.
