Re: It was a good night for approvals

Yea I thought they'd be the least conservative but credit is weird. No history with USB at all.

Re: It was a good night for approvals

SL was $4.5k on the Cash+ without recon. I did not since I'd like the Altitude Reserve before going into full gardening mode lol. I'll take $9.3k in one night from lenders who aren't known for big limits

Re: It was a good night for approvals

Congrats on the approvals and the great starting limit (not that standard $500 Smiley Happy ) with USB!

Re: It was a good night for approvals

Thanks! I called prepared to recon and was going to ask for $5k-7.5k hoping to get $3.5-4.5k. When they said $4.5 I decided I was very content with that.

Re: It was a good night for approvals

Congrats OP!

Those are very nice cards and very good SL too!

I think USB used your EQ with a better profile and higher score than your EX which BoA most likely used which explains the result.

Re: It was a good night for approvals

USB pulled TU and TU 4 is my lowest mortgage score. Thank you though, I'm very excited about the approvals and don't even care about BoA. If I recon it's only not to waste the HP but the card won't get much use.

Re: It was a good night for approvals

Thanks. At this point I feel like I can't even say I'm actively rebuilding anymore. Chase, Citi, US Bank, Amex, and Discover. I think my rebuilding phase has come to an end.

Re: It was a good night for approvals

Congrats on the approvals. 

Depending on the institution you are looking to apply at for your mortgage and what type of mortgage(conventional/fha/ect..) 1 year of no applications or negatives will get you a desktop underwriter approval as long as you are debt-to-income friendly and FICO 580 is lowest middle score for any type of desktop underwriter approval. 720 FICO middle mortgage score will get you the best rates and best down payment terms. 

From my experience in tracking my FICO scores since last August, the FICO mortgage is the most sensitive to drops from new accounts/inquiries/ect.. so if you sit back one year before applying for a mortgage with your current profile and scores that I see, you should be golden for the best terms.

Take care!
