Tips on how to preserve credit rate when buying multiple properties

Justin Li
Posted

Hi everyone,

I am up to property #5 and my credit score keeps getting beat up. Any thoughts on how to preserve credit score while buying multiple properties, or is this just a necessary evil that you have to accept?

I was at 760+ and now I'm at 720.. hope it doesn't drop even lower.

Best,
Justin

    Zero to worry about assume you make your payments on time of course. It will be temporary. Certainly not worth paying a premium for a loan you do not have to by doing a DSCR loan when you do not need one.
