Re: New credit Lower Score??

When I first started here I had no open credit except for an older car loan. When I added my first 3-4 CCs, I saw a gain. Adding CCs #5-20 or so resulted in a loss of 20-25 on avg. I've found that most of the points have returned inside of 6 months and the remainder by one year, assuming I didn't open anything new from that point going forward.

 

ETA...it is a YMMV thing too based on scoring bucket, credit profile, mix of credit, util changes, AAoA changes, and so on.

Awsome Ty

I'm not so much worried about Aaoa as mine is only a few yrs anyway. I just wanted to make sure that establishing a loan wouldn't hurt to bad Smiley Happy
