How do I start building my credit history? I am turned away from credit card companies because I don't have a credit history. How can this be?

Realtors share the 10 top myths about credit scores
23.02.12
Since lenders have tightened their loan requirements, there has been much concern about credit. Unfortunately, many borrowers do not have the correct information about how credit scores are evaluated, according to professional credit specialists.
"Certain facts about credit will affect you and any financial decision you make or are about to make, so it's important to have the correct information," says Julie Macc, a certified credit and identity theft specialist with the Century Law Group.
Macc notes your credit score is based on the following components: past delinquencies, 35 percent; debt ratio, 30 percent; average age of file, 15 percent; mix of credit, 10 percent; and inquiries, 10 percent.
