Will my credit score drop if I apply for a new loan?
According to MyFICO.com credit inquiries make up 10% of your credit score. Everything is relative in credit scoring. So, if you are already struggling with a lower score, inquiries will have more of an impact. If your credit history is shorter, inquiries will have more of an impact. Most credit scores are not affected by multiple inquiries from auto or mortgage lenders within a short period of time. Typically these are treated as a single inquiry and will have little impact on the score, if done within 30 days.
