More cc?

Only credit cards i have are capital one visa and nfcu visa. Do you think I need to add in a store credit card to mix it up? Or it doesnt matter. is 2 enough? I want to reach high enough score for a mortgage by the end of he year. Currently mid score is 584.

I wouldn't bother wasting inquiries with such a low score. Even if you were to get approve for anything it'll probably be a low CL with high interest.

You probably got some baddies on your reports with that score. Why not try to fix those first?

Re: More cc?

In my opinion, 2 credit cards is definitely NOT enough.
