How New Lines of Credit Help Your Credit History

Article by John LeBlanc

Many people who are undergoing credit repair and are actively seeking out advice on the best way to improve their credit score inevitably ask about new lines of credit and how adding more credit can help them in their search for credit restoration.

Here’s how new lines of credit can help you:

The inquisition

Applying for a new line of credit will start with your potential lender making inquiries into your credit history and using your past deeds to determine your credit worthiness, that is, how much of a risk it might be to extend you more credit.

Since credit inquiries account for 10% of your credit score – and applying for new credit always comes with at least a few inquiries – you’ll want to be careful about applying for too much new credit in order to keep the dings to your score down.

New account

Once youÂ’re approved for your new credit account, you may pull a copy of your refreshed credit report to see how the new account looks, only to find that your score is actually lowered by having it show up.

Think of it as minor league players suddenly getting dropped into the majors. Because the account is so new, the overall age of your history resets a little bit, and can pull your score down a couple of points.

DonÂ’t worry, thereÂ’s a silver lining here. Those new credit accounts bring new credit limits along with them. And these limits (the higher, the better) are great at raising your scores back up, especially if you already have fairly good credit.

In conclusion

Whenever you open a new credit account, your overall credit score is likely to take a hit by a couple of points. And no, closing the account won’t reverse the effects – the inquiry will still be on your report, and just because you close an account doesn’t mean it’ll vanish overnight, so don’t back out when your score isn’t as high as you thought it would be right off the bat. As those new accounts stay open though, assuming you treat them right and pay them on time, they’ll start to work in your favor as they age, like a fine wine.
