Late payment on electric bill

i've had one late payment for electric in the last 4 monthhs. so far it has not seemed to effect my credit but i'm worried about it because id like to get a mortgage. do you know if/when it will effect my credit or if it is too soon since the late payment to get a mortgage?

I agree with my colleague. The only way it could affect your mortgage application is if you had to use that account as an alternate trade-line to support/enhance your overall financial profile..
