Thanks guys
I read not to long ago that you got a 4 pt hit per inquiry and that it takes up to six months to recoup. I am intrigue with the subject and would like to get some factual evidence.

A couple questions for you.
Did your score drop 14 pts at once or it drop a couple points each time?
Can you give the timeline of the applications and the score drop?
Thanks
