From the New York Tiimes:
If you’re looking to refinance or buy a home, potential lenders and mortgage brokers will be checking your credit scores. And if those scores are being verified, chances are they are going down.
Yes, you read that correctly. Each time a credit score is pulled from one of the three credit bureaus as part of a loan application, it can decline by as much as 20 points, or more. Call it the Great Credit-Score Ding.
