HARD INQUIRY: What you need to know about them.
An Inquiry is created when your credit report is accessed by a business. With that being said. have you heard of Hard Inquiries? Soft Inquiries?
You may have heard that a hard inquiry can hurt your credit score. But you may not be sure what that means — what is a hard inquiry anyway? Hard inquiries are created when you apply for credit. They can potentially drop your credit scores, which can result in higher interest rates when you borrow. On large loan, like those for a car or home, a drop of even a few points can mean a higher interest rate. And that may mean you’ll pay more over the life of the loan.
