Credit
Variety

The variety of your credit portfolio can make up to 10% of your credit score. It is important to have different types of credit accounts. These can be auto loans, student loans, mortgages, credit cards, and much more.

Credit
Utilization

How you use your credit accounts once you get them is another huge influence on your credit score. Whenever you have a revolving credit account such as a credit card, try to use less than 30% of your available credit at any given time.

New Credit & Hard Inquiries

The amount of new credit accounts is a factor on your credit, and it also brings the average age of your credit accounts down.

Hard inquiries occur when you apply for a loan or line of credit; and the lender requests to look at your official credit report. Hard inquiries only affect your credit for a few months, but they stay on your credit report for up to two years. This is why it is important to keep hard inquiries to a minimum when possible.
