Bad Credit Mortgage Brokers

Most people are aware that if they want to arrange a mortgage with a high street lender they will need a good credit score – but what if you have bad credit registered? – We are experienced bad credit mortgage brokers and we have access to specialist lenders that will accept clients that have bad credit registered such as missed payments, defaults or County Court Judgements. Every application is judged on its own merits – therefore, it makes sense to speak with a bad credit mortgage broker who can provide you with tailored advice and guidance.

Typical bad credit that we see registered against clients credit profiles that we can help with include:

• Missed Payments.
• Defaults – This is generally registered when you go into arrears of between 3 – 6 months.
• County Court Judgement (CCJ) – This is where the credit provider has taken you to court to reclaim the debt.
• Debt Management Plans – If you have a debt arrangement in place either directly with the creditors or via a 3rd party (Debt Management Company).
• Discharged bankruptcy or Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA).

We have access to many bad credit lenders such as:

• Bluestone Mortgages.
• Masthaven Bank.
• Norton Home Loans.
• Pepper Money.
• Precise Mortgages.
• The Mortgage Lender.
• Together Money.
• United Trust Bank.
• Vida Home Loans.

Each lender’s criteria is different and to apply for a mortgage you will need a Credit Check done. Lenders will want to know when the bad credit was registered, how much was the debt for, what type of debt was it (i.e. missed payments on a loan or credit card) and have you managed to satisfy it.
