Prequalifications!!

I've been on a credit repair journey since February of this year to get a home. We are scheduled to close in October 2017. I know, I will NOT be applying for any credit until we close on the house. 

 

Just wanted to share that I tried the AmEx prequalification page and it shows I am prequalified for the following. I've NEVER been able to see a prequal offer on this page. Experian score is sitting at 649 with 12% overall utilization. 

 

1) Amex EveryDay Credit Card - 23.99% APR

2) AmEx Blue Cash Everyday - no annual fee/23.99% APR

3) AmEx Express Green Card - $0 AF first year & $95 after - no APR because balance is due in full every month. 

 

I still don't get an offer on Capital One, and on Discover's prequal I get the 11.99-23.99% APR range, which I know doesn't mean it's a solid prequalification. 

 

I currently have the following cards: 

Capital One; April 2016 - Secured $500 limit

Capital One; February 2017 - Authorized User - $5,500 Limit - card has been open since April 2013

NFCU; March 2017 - Secured $1,000 limit

On the discover, no it’s not solid. Try again next time until you get an actual rate.

Yup I had the pre approved pop up on discover and then I got denied for not having a lon enough credit history

By the time the house closes, as your accounts age you may see more offers and better terms from AmEx

Good luck with the house and everything 👍
