Insurance and credit rating

I am going to apply for home insurance tonight but I am also going to apply for a mortgage this week. Will applying for home insurance affect my credit rating?? Thanks in advance.

    They may perform a credit check on you (each insurer) however the type of search insurers are using is the type that is not supposed to impact credit scoring or show up on your credit history when viewed by a bank etc

    So all I will have is a quote on my report, which won't be seen by the bank.

    That is correct.
    All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.
