My FICO8 on Experian had recently reached 776 (paid all my cards to 1% use).
I also paid off a Consumer Finance Loan -> PAID $0 Balance and the score dropped to 774. Not a big issue, but was the opposite of what I thought would happen.
Need to have 3 CCs + 1 installment loan OPEN in order to have optimal scoring.
I am a little curious what will happen to my score when my loan reports paid off on the next cycle, and losing that 98% paid boost.
Personal Loan: $113 Reported balance Highest balance $15,000
I do have an auto Loan is 45% paid off, so I shouldn't lose much if anything, right?
Anecdotally what threshold should I pay it down to if my score does drop more than I'd like, say to 55-60% or $6,500?
Auto Loan: $8,518 Reported balance Highest balance $15,333
FYI all Card UT is at or under 8%, with only two cards having a balance $700/$12K on NFCU and $600/$11K on CFU.
