credit impaired:
our team can find solutions even at the hardest of times.
If you’ve experienced financial issues in the past and have a bad credit record, it can often limit your options when it comes to purchasing your own property.
Credit impaired means that you may have severe adverse repayment information on your credit report. This can include things such as defaults, county court judgements, or bankruptcies. These are the more severe scenarios that lenders will look for to decide whether they would lend to you or not.
But it’s not always so black and white, and that’s why leaning on expert advice from us is beneficial. We have access to specialist lenders who are flexible with their criteria and will be able to find a solution to help you get one step closer to purchasing your own home.
bad credit:
how do ‘bad credit’ mortgages work?
‘Bad Credit’ mortgages, are very much like a regular mortgage, but they are likely to come with higher interest rates, and there potentially could be a lower limit on how much you can borrow.
The main reason for this, is that having a lower credit score can be seen as a higher risk to the lender. Your monthly repayments will go towards repaying the money you’ve borrowed, as well as paying the interest charges on top.
