Re: Advice on what to do next

My goal is to cross over the 700 score landscape, months ago that seems unreal. A house in 2017

Plus I'm looking for a travel card and Amex, is there a chance for either or should I just wait awhile till my scores increases?

My advice would be to apply for Barclay Rewards or Cap One Venture.

And then do nothing for at least 6 months.
