No credit history and bad credit are NOT the same thing.
No credit history means lenders have less information to see how you manage repayments.
Bad credit means there is a repayment history showing issues such as missed or late payments.
Both can affect a home loan application differently, which is why understanding your credit profile before applying matters.
