Bad credit Remortgages in the UK

If you wish to organise a bad credit remortgage, don’t just head automatically for a specialist....


A good mortgage company will adjust its lending criteria to suit the times, thus lenders are constantly evolving to suit the remortgage UK market. As a result, some mortgage providers have adopted a more accommodating attitude towards bad credit.

Credit problems - the result of not being able to make a payment on a financial agreement - range from a small, unintended mispayment of a bill, to a large repeated mishandling of personal finance.

A mortgage provider will be wary of lending a sizeable amount to someone with a proven track record of falling into arrears.

You may be at one of the following stages:

1) You’re having problems getting credit – such as a personal loan, credit card or mortgage – on the high street
2) You already have one of the above, but have missed a couple of payments so are unsure where you stand
3) You’ve had problems in the past and are currently on a specialist loan at a high interest rate

Rather than calling a specialist in bad credit loans, why not try a reputable mortgage broker first?

A good broker will be able to assess your case and will know which lender might be sympathetic to your circumstances. A lot of it will depend on how bad your credit history is and what the loan to value is on your mortgage.

However, you may be surprised to find that rather than being placed on a bad credit mortgage loan with a high interest rate, you may be offered a standard loan at the same rate as any other borrower.

If you’ve had problems in the past and have been paying a high rate for several years now, your recent track record might be enough to render you eligible for a standard loan. In other words, you may be able to switch to one of the best mortgage deals on the market.

It’s always worth seeking advice from a mortgage broker. L&C don’t charge a fee – so you don’t have to pay for the privilege of trying to sort your finances out! (see free mortgage advice: our no broker fee policy).
