Last time I checked, Dec. 30, 2007, myFICO EQ score was 757, and my EX score in Nov. was 762. Since I am looking for a house this summer, I wonder what is the impact of this transfer. One thing I am worrying about is whether it may be considered as "Maxed out" since Capital One has only $7,200 of credit limit. My overall util has been more or less 10%. Your comments would be appreciated.Happy New Year!
