❓Short answer? Yes.
❓Long answer? All applications made within a fixed period are considered as a single credit check. The period could vary from 15-45 days depending on the credit model used for your application.
❓So, can you rate shop? Yes, you can rate shop within the window. You'll have to ask the bank. However, every time you make an application, it can have some affect. A hard check stays on your credit score for 2 years.
❓What's the alternative? Work with mortgage agents like Team BobCat Mortgages. We can get you pre-approved for mortgage through multiple lenders at the same time to minimise the damage to your credit score.
