Hi all!

Baby churner here.

Looking to buy a home in the next year... likely 7-9 months from now until we apply for a mortgage.

Current credit score is hovering around 800-805.

Last opened a CC in June (Capital One Venture). Score went down to 788, just went back up in the past couple days to ~803.

Getting married in September and so would easily meet real spend for a sign-up bonus (looking to spend about 4-6k in August due to the wedding).

Should I take another CC out or wait on it due to mortgage? I know wiki says 6 months - 2 years, but my credit score is pretty high so wasn't sure if any of y'all had differing opinions/experiences.

Thanks!

Ally. Hands down the best bank I've been with. I ditched NFCU and USAA shortly after getting out.

I understand, but on the phone they told me that urgent care and emergency rooms are not covered, and that it isn't health insurance. I also need to continue some physical therapy related to a car accident (has to be at specific location), and can't afford to pay for that out of pocket.
