Disadvantages of credit cards: you need to have good credit to utilize this, and as your balances increases your credit score decreases. once the cards are paid off your credit score will just back up quickly, but you have to plan for the swings if you are looking for additional lines of credit or mortgages. mine can swing as much as 100 points based on where im at on the projects. the good news is ive applied for loans only a week or two after paying $50,000 in credit cards off and my credit had already jumped back up to great levels.
