Credit Inquiries

Credit inquiries are typically listed at the end of your credit report, after the trade line information. A credit inquiry appears on your credit report when a current or prospective credit grantor has reviewed your credit file.
A "hard inquiry" results from an actual application for credit or a credit line increase that you initiated, and a large number of hard inquiries can negatively impact your credit score.
