Hey folks! Let's talk about credit checks and how they affect your credit scores. 📉

When lenders check your credit, it's reported as an "inquiry" to credit reporting companies. Usually, this has a minor negative impact on your scores and lets other lenders know you're considering taking on new debt.

While inquiries are inevitable when applying for a mortgage, it's wise to be strategic. Apply for credit only when necessary to minimize these impacts.

Wondering if shopping around for a mortgage hurts your credit? Nope! Within a 45-day window, multiple credit checks from mortgage lenders count as one inquiry. So, feel free to explore your options and get multiple preapprovals without worrying about your scores taking a hit.

And here's a neat tip: Checking your own credit won't affect your scores at all! So, if you're gearing up for a mortgage application, it's a smart move to review your credit report for errors beforehand. You can grab a free copy at annualcreditreport.com.
