Share this question with others:

If I check for the best institution, with best rates, each does a hard check = negative affect?

Good question?

Multiple banks = greater number of hard inquiries which in turn creates an adverse effect on my credit score and thus giving me increased interest rates. NOT MY FAULT! How can I get this corrected?

Mutiple inquries for a same loan type over a short period of time is only counted as one on your SCORE. On your report, you will still all o them because it is  a record but they won't hurt your score in the same way.
