Will this affect my chances

Weetod

I am looking to buy my first house in about 4 or 5 months but have not had the greatest credit history. I've tried to repair this the last few years including using a credit card and fully clearing it every month.

I've just been told by my credit card company that I'm now eligible to double my limit. This is not something that I need and would not make use of but would accepting this affect my chances either way if applying for a mortgage in next few months?

As a general rule, if you're offered an increase, take it, unless your combined limits are now dwarfing your income, or you have issues controlling your spending.

@weetod Based on the very limited info in your post, whether you accept an increase or not is unlikely to have a material impact on your chances.

If you increase your limit and then proceed to load up on debt, then yes there may be an impact.
