They shared a firm handshake, exchanged a fine "How are ya?", and our credit score promptly fell on its back.
It's not as if we weren't expecting it.
DW home schools our girls. The company that she buys curriculum from was offering 0% financing for six months, so we decided to take advantage of the offer. The rejection message stated that our scores were less than 620. So, that means that they fell by a minimum of 85 points.
In October 2010, my score was at 580. I had built it back up to 705 by August 2012. So, we'll keep doing the right things, and hopefully in a couple of years, we'll see daylight again.
Our credit score and short sale finally met
