I started last February then with these few "Planning ahead" questions.
I was at EQ 639, TU 655 and EX 648.
Today I am the helm of my rebuilding credit journey.
These past 2 weeks in particular were very good to me: EQ auto deleted last Bad account(month an a half ahead), I got 12K increase on my Amex(3X CLI) and today I was finally able to get EE on that last bad account with TU.
So I run a 3B report - my file is squeaky clean. Clean, Clean and Clean.
Today EQ 721, TU 718 and EX 720. That is before 12K Amex 3X CLI which should push it above 740 which was My Goal all alone to buy the house!!! My Spouses scores are above 800 on all 3 CRAs!
All the Debt that we have 0% interest with the help of a few "smart" Balance transfers for the next 11-17 month.
Finally - No baddies and no inquiries! ![]()
Congrats! Can't wait until I can say that in 4-5 years. Lol

Congratulations!
CONGRATS!!!!!!! Hard work pays off!
Great job, can't wait until I get there!!
Interesting part here is that my latest 3B FICO says I have nill ENQs at all, which is good thing to certain extent. My file at Experian.com shows 3, all from May of 2017, which are valid.
Why is That?

Inq's stay on your report for 2 years, but after 1 year they are unscoreable, so MF 3b report doesn't show them after they no longer affect you.
Congrats on your progress, and i can't wait till i can make a post like this when i'm "clean" as well ![]()
