What Can You Get Approved For With a 752 Credit Score?

With a 752 credit score, you can likely get approved for rewards cards, 0% intro APR cards, personal loans, prime-rate auto loans, and most mortgages, as long as your income and debts support what you're borrowing. A 752 is very good credit. The nearest pricing cutoff is 760, 8 points away, where Fannie Mae's mortgage fee drops.

Is 752 a good credit score?

Yes. FICO's very good range runs from 740 to 799, and 752 is in the lower half of it. Exceptional credit starts at 800.

A score at this level usually reflects a steady run of on-time payments, low card balances, and few recent applications. What separates 752 from the next pricing tiers is usually a few factors, like a month's reported balance, a recent hard inquiry, or a few more years of history.

What can you get approved for with a 752 credit score?

At 752, most lenders will approve you if your income, job history, and debt-to-income ratio (DTI) support the loan. What your score decides now is the price.

Credit cards

Rewards cards with cash back, points, travel perks, or sign-up bonuses are realistic at 752. So are long 0% intro APR periods. Some premium travel cards may look for higher scores or higher income.

Since you'll likely qualify for several, compare them on what you'll actually use: travel perks, cash back on everyday spending, bonus categories, or how long the intro period lasts. An intro 0% period helps only if you pay the balance off before it ends. Before applying, check whether the issuer offers prequalification, which uses a soft credit check that doesn't affect your score.

Personal loans

Most personal lenders will approve a 752 if your income and DTI support the loan. Expect offers toward the lower end of a lender's advertised range, though not always its lowest rate.

The Federal Reserve's average for a 24-month bank personal loan is 11.86%, and a 752 borrower can often get offers below it. Federal credit unions can't charge more than 18% on most loans, so include them when you compare options.

Auto loans

At 752, you're in Experian's prime tier (661 to 780), 29 points below super prime at 781. Your credit score plays a major role in the interest rate you're offered on a car loan. On a $20,000, 60-month new car loan at average rates, a prime borrower would pay about $1,000 more in interest than a super prime borrower. Experian sorts these tiers by VantageScore 4.0, so your FICO score may place you a little differently.

Manufacturer promotions like 0% financing may be within reach, so ask the dealer what score a specific promotion requires. Before you visit a dealer, get preapproved by a bank or credit union. That gives you a rate to compare against the dealer's offer and any promotion.

Use an auto loan calculator to check payment amounts before you sign.

Mortgages

At 752, most mortgage types are open to you. Your score mainly decides what you pay, and Fannie Mae's next fee band is 8 points away:

• Conventional loans. Fannie Mae charges lenders an upfront fee on the loans it buys, based on your score and down payment. With 20% down, the fee is 0.875% of the loan amount for scores of 740 to 759, 0.625% at 760 to 779, and 0.375% at 780+. On a $200,000 loan, that's $1,750 at your score, $1,250 at 760, and $750 at 780+. You'd pay the difference through a higher rate or more cash at closing.
• FHA loans. These loans are an option, but they carry their own mortgage insurance premium. Borrowers with scores of 580 or higher can qualify with 3.5% down, and each lender can set a higher minimum. At 752, compare an FHA quote with a conventional one, especially if your down payment is small.
• Jumbo loans. Each lender sets its own score, income, and reserve requirements for loans above conventional limits, so whether 752 qualifies depends on the lender.

Small rate differences add up on a mortgage. For example, on a $300,000, 30-year loan, 6.0% instead of 6.5% saves about $98 a month, or about $35,000 over the life of the loan.

What interest rates can you expect with a 752 credit score?

Expect offers better than average, though not always a lender's best. Exact rates depend on the lender, the loan, and market conditions. The Federal Reserve's averages across all borrowers were 22.15% for card accounts charging interest and 11.86% for 24-month bank personal loans. At 752, your offers will likely come in below both.

Your nearest cutoff is 760, 8 points away, where Fannie Mae's mortgage fee drops to 0.625%. After that, 780 starts Fannie Mae's top fee band and 781 starts Experian's super prime auto tier. Reaching 800, 48 points away, changes what you're called more than your price.

5 ways to protect or raise a 752 credit score

1. Check your reports before a big application. You can get all three for free every week at AnnualCreditReport.com. If anything is wrong, like an account that isn't yours, dispute it with the bureau reporting it.
2. Keep reported balances low. Your issuer usually reports your statement balance. Paying it down before the statement closes keeps your utilization low, even if you already pay in full.
3. Never miss a payment. Payment history makes up 35% of a FICO Score, and a late payment stays on your report for seven years.
4. Limit new applications. Each hard inquiry can take a few points off for about a year. When you're shopping for an auto loan, mortgage, or student loan, keep it within a tight window. FICO counts those inquiries as one if they fall within 14 to 45 days, depending on the FICO version. Credit card and personal loan applications each count separately.
5. Think twice before closing a card. Closing one removes its credit limit, which can raise your utilization if you carry balances on other cards.

If your report is thin on accounts, adding one helps. A Kikoff Credit Account reports your payments to all three bureaus.

Bottom line

A 752 score gets you approved for most cards, loans, and mortgages at better-than-average rates. The next step is close: At 760, 8 points away, Fannie Mae's mortgage fee drops. Beyond that, 780 and 781 bring the top mortgage and auto pricing, and every new hard inquiry works against you.
