I finally hit the 800+ on my credit score. It took a long time but Iβm really proud of the progress!
Iβm currently only using one Capital One card, but Iβm looking to get a mortgage in the near future (next year or so) Is one credit card enough? Iβve always been nervous about having more than one, but I feel like Iβm missing out on better rewards. Is it actually "better" for my credit profile to have two?
Also, will a hard inquiry for a new card hurt my mortgage application, or will a higher total limit help me more in the long run?
If I were to get another credit card, Which is better? Iβm torn between the Amex Cobalt for the travel/everyday perks or the CIBC Costco for the 3% back.
I have so many questions and no where to turn. Any advice would be great and much appreciated. Thank you all in advanceπ
800+ credit score! π¨π¦ Should I get a second card or wait for a mortgage?
