No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
My plans are to apply for a home loan in January, currently I have
1 line of credit
1 cc
3 installment
Is it okay to apply for more cards, I have always heard not to apply for new credit before you apply for a home loan, but I need points.
The baddies are portfolio recovery 672 I am going to pay them then try to gw for deletion
My mortgage scores are
TU 627
EQ 595
EX 653
Is the cap one a soft pull, the one you enter your info to see which card you qualify for? I understand I will lose a few points, but when the new credit card reports I may get more points?
Thanks

What's your AAOA now and how many inquiries do you have on your reports from how long ago?
Not sold on getting a third card sixish months before a mortgage, LOC + CC should max out most of the score card anyway, you might get a few more points having three for reindeer games but it's not really optimal. I'd probably solve it with a $250 secured card from SDFCU if I were going to do it personally, or go beg for an AU if you have that option.
Try to get a PFD for the collection if you can, paying and then GW could be tough. That said with a 2010 forum registration date would've expected your scores to be higher than that, the one collection is really all you have derogatory wise?
