    Credit score drop

    I’ve done great since my chapter 7 discharge. Got .2 decent credit cards and pay them off every month. It’s been 7 months. I sold my car and paid off the loan and my score dropped 15 points even though I have a small personal loan to keep my mix. Is this unusual?

    Where are you getting your scores from? If the likes of WalletHub and CreditKarma, those scores are irrelevant as they are Vantage scores which are virtually unused by any underwriters. If you got your scores from the likes of myFICO, then any score drop is likely transient and will most probably bounce back next month.

        The drop is likely that you only have one installment loans on your credit report. A car loan is such type of loan that the score likes to see on the report. But, from what I can tell, it likes to see two. Typically it wants to see a mortgage and another installment account. Maybe shipo has some other experience to share.

          Hmmm, that is a FICO 8 score; my bet is it will bounce back soon.
