Bad Credit Mortgages

Can I get a mortgage with a poor credit score?

Yes, there are specialist lenders who offer mortgages for people with bad credit, including CCJs, defaults, or missed payments.

How much deposit do I need for a bad credit mortgage?

Most bad credit mortgage lenders require at least 15–30% deposit, depending on the severity of your credit issues.

Will I pay a higher interest rate if I have bad credit?

Typically yes, as lenders consider you higher risk. However, rates vary and can improve over time with better credit management.

Can I get a mortgage with a recent default or CCJ?

Yes, though the lender’s decision depends on how recent and severe the issue is. A larger deposit can improve your chances.

How can I improve my chances of being approved?

Build your credit score, reduce debts, and speak to a broker who specialises in bad credit mortgages for tailored advice.
