I currently have one CC with Orchard Bank with a CL of 850, the only other TL I have is a auto loan with HSBC. I have a BK that was Discharged in 6-05. I am going to be purchasing my first home in March of 08 when construction is complete. My question is should I apply for another card or two to help boost my score, or would it hurt me more since I will have to get a mortgage in 6 months. I am trying everything in my power to boost my score as much as possible as quick as possible. Thanks in advance
