No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Just a suggestion! Wait for about four to six months after you have obtained the mortage before applying for any card. This will allow equity, no matter how small to build, and kinda tells your creditors (prospective) that you are applying for credit as a backup plan and not out of necessity!

Certainly not a bad idea, but I don't think it's really necessary. I apped for a couple 0% intro APR cards right after closing to put some house expenses on. I don't think it's had any negative effect other than what is to be expected, i.e., lowering of AAoA, ding for an inquiry, etc.
