That said, I think people worry too much about credit histories. And every foreigner I've met who moved to the US as a pharma scientist with a 6 figure salary has been able to get a mortgage despite not having a credit history in the US. A good credit history (vs. having none) generally seems to matter when you are getting a mortgage close to the limit given your salary.
