*Loan,banking and credit>>>mortgage loan

Why did my FICO score drop 30 pts. From Aug. 29 - sept.11 my credit was pulled both times for mortgage loans?

You shouldn't let anyone pull your credit unless you must, because all those inquiries do affect your score, but also, it depends on which credit bureau was pulled, maybe it was a different one (there's 3 bureaus) and that's why the score was lower.

You might consider getting the FICO kit that's recommended by personal finance guru Suze Orman. It has tools for analyzing and optimizing your FICO score - http://necessaryvirtues.com/recommends/s...
It will straighten up....all the loan inquiries will combine into one...just so they are all within 30 days..........at worst 6 Moths the sting is gone
inquires for mortgages are a big one and will cause your score to drop more than a normal inquire for a credit card.
