Does BRRRR Strategy deteriorate your credit score?
Hi,
I'm just getting started in real estate investing, but I have a question. I have a very good credit score (was 800+ when I checked last time). I'm thinking about doing BRRRR strategy. However, with this strategy, you require your credit to be pulled multiple times to refinance the loan (and for me, I finance my first purchase as well). Wouldn't your credit score deteriorate a lot from getting lots of hard inquiries on your credit, which then will increase your interest rates? How does everyone deal with this situation? Thank you for your help!

Hard inquiries don’t affect your score that much. You won’t go below 740 which is the prime rate. I wouldn’t worry much about this.
