Your mixing up 2 different scoring models.
When focusing on mortgage scores, you would get more bang for your buck by focusing your efforts on (1) increasing the number of accounts with zero balances and (2) decreasing individual accounts reporting 50% or more. Optimally you would have only one card reporting a balance and that balance being 28% or less.
The Merrick and Fingerhut accounts are killing your scores.
If you have the Experian app, you can use the simulator to get a pretty accurate look at where your score will end up when you pay off debt. It's been pretty accurate for me so far...
