Re: Gardening :)

Not so much, they quit calculating in your scores after a year, they drop off after two. So for real fico purposes, the inquiries are supposedly not calculated.

They also lose strength after six months.

Re: Gardening :)

As IF points out, it depends on whether you mean they will reach one year or two years. If one year, you will probably see a few point boost. If two years, then no boost for reasons explained above.

Re: Gardening :)

If I can ask, what were your scores like when you started in the garden? And how long till you noticed a change in your scores?

thanks
