Finance: Will Inquiries Lower Your Credit Score?

Will Inquiries Lower Your Credit Score?

Written by Scott Brown

What are inquiries?When you apply for credit creditor or lender checks your credit report to verify that you qualify for credit or loan you are applying for. The "inquiry" is then reported to credit bureaus and shows up on your credit report.
Does this affect your credit rating or score?
Yes, it does. Although only a few points are deducted from your score for each inquiry, having multiple inquiries may drop your score to a lower bracket, forcing a higher interest rate. You may not even qualify for loan or line of credit at all.
Will requesting your credit report generate an inquiry?

This is a common misconception and is totally false. You should view your report at least once a month. Doing so will not generate any inquiries.
