My scores went up from: TU-528 EX-581 EQ-555 To now: TU-661 EX-631 EQ-572 Should I apply for a credit card or two? I have had 2 Subprimes for over a year now. My ultimate goal is to get out of this Apartment and buy a house.
It all depends on when you plan to buy house...if you are going to apply for mortgage within next few months then do not apply for CC because new revolving credit line on your report may drop your score. Generally after 6 months of good payment history and low utilization on your revolving credit lines you may expect your score to go up.
Ok I probably can put the house off for a while ( Job Tranfer Possible) with those scores what CC are a pretty good chance on approval?
