Bad Credit FAQ
Is it possible to obtain a mortgage with bad credit?
Yes. We have been specialists in this market for some time.
Is all adverse credit accepted?
We will have a look into all cases and assess them on an individual basis.
How do I find out whether I have adverse credit?
Very easily – if you log on to www.creditexpert.co.uk you can get a free 30 day trial with Experian, one of the major credit search houses within the UK. With the information on your credit file we can usually get a decision within an hour.
Why would I have bad credit rating?
There are many things that can potentially affect your credit rating. Some examples are:
- Missed credit card, loan or mortgage payments
- Being in a debt repayment arrangement such as an IVA, or if you have been declared bankrupt
- County Court Judgements/Defaults registered against you
- If you have taken out a pay day loan
If I have adverse credit registered against me will high street lenders still accept my application?
Every case is assessed individually. ams: have direct communication with all the major UK underwriters. This means that we can discuss each case on its own merit before submitting the application for approval.
What do I do if normal high street lenders won’t accept me?
We use lenders who are specialists in the adverse credit market.
How soon are you likely to get me a decision?
We aim to get you a decision in principle with an hour once we have all of your information to hand.
How much deposit is likely to be required?
Between 10-15{f3e6733233b70b8da8509d0af294c4ca7fb8b7488135760b99cf9baca8bf684d} – although this does depend on the results of your credit file. The lenders see you as a higher risk if there is a lot of adverse credit on your file and may therefore require a higher deposit.
