Imagine yourself in the process of finalizing a deal to buy your dream home. It’s an open space… it’s full of light. There’s those spacious granite countertops you like… and stainless steel appliances galore.
You’re having a great conversation with the realtor– it’s almost a done deal.
Then he asks you about your credit. You tell him you don’t have any, or that it’s poor. Suddenly, he tells you that your mortgage rate will be super high, which could mean you’ll end up paying more money over the term of your mortgage. You may not get approved for a mortgage at all!

In a recent MyBankTracker survey, it was revealed that 49.7% of millennials don’t own a credit card. And 53% of those aged 18 to 24 said they don’t have a credit card and never applied. For young people entering the world of adulthood, it is of the utmost importance to establish credit – good credit at that.
