What credit score do you need to get a Lowe's (or Home Depot) card? Will my scores get me one? We are closing on a home in 2 weeks and need a washer/dryer.


If you are closing on a home in 2 weeks...I advise not to open a new credit card account until you have closed escrow and your loan has funded. Opening a new account is a new liability to factor into the loan and will DELAY your processing and you may miss out on the house you picked.....wait.

 

The truth is out there...

FICO scores: 677 (EQ) 664 (EX) 681 (TU) | Goal scores: 750+ (all 3)
Open loans: Hyundai Motor Finance - $12k balance | 60 months @ 4.9% (First Time Buyer 12/2012)
