Or is it depending on which lenders? 

Looking for a lender who can go with 1 credit line.

    Hi Liam, 

    There are programs available where 1 trade line would suffice.  

    Is this for a purchase or refinance transaction?

     Hey Liam, 

    For how long of a history have you had this credit line?

    What kind of credit is it? Typically most lenders will want to see a full 2 years, but depending on the credit type, your reserves, DSCR and, experience, you may be able to pull it off with an exception

    There are programs out there that can use other histories as line of credit like utilities, phone bills and rent. I'm doing one right now with one active line of credit.
