I got a 40 point drop from a single credit check in Phoenix

I applied for an apartment here in Phoenix last month and they did a hard pull on my credit. My score went from 720 to 680 almost overnight. I thought one check wouldn't matter that much. How long does it usually take for a hard inquiry to stop hurting your score?

Mine bounced back after a few months, just give it time.

Totally agree with @mary239. Mine came back stronger after I switched up my routine. Patience is key.
