What Are Bad Credit Mortgages?
Bad credit mortgages in Chelmsford are for those who have poor or limited credit history. The interest rates for these borrowers tend to be higher, and you may need to pay a bigger deposit as well. This is because you are seen as a bigger risk to a lender. Some people prefer to wait until their credit has improved before buying a home, but that’s not an option for everyone. If you want to make your move now, a bad credit option is your surest bet of being able to buy a home.
What Are the Benefits?
Securing a bad credit mortgage allows you to buy a home sooner rather than later. We don’t believe that anyone should be shut out of home ownership and will take care to match you to a compassionate, understanding lender who is happy to judge each applicant on an individual basis. The result? A mortgage that works for you, both now and in the future.
Making timely repayments on a bad credit mortgage will actually improve your credit score, making it one of many tools to improve your rating over time. This will make it easier to remortgage at a better rate or qualify for other kinds of loans in the future. Provided that you are serious about improving your credit score and are taking other steps to do so, a bad credit mortgage could be a great long-term move.

FAQs
Can you help me if I have been turned down for a mortgage before?
Many people assume that once they have been turned down by a lender, their chances of securing a mortgage have disappeared. That’s not the case though! There’s no such thing as an impossible case to us, and we have direct access to every lender in the UK. If we can’t find you a mortgage, then you won’t have to pay us a single penny.
Working with a mortgage broker with experience in bad credit mortgages really improves your chances of getting approved. So, if you have been turned down before, we are ready to help however we can.
Are bad credit mortgages different to regular mortgages?
When you are applying for a mortgage with bad credit, the lender sees you as more of a risk. As a result, any mortgage that you are offered may come with stricter terms. You might have a higher interest rate or be asked to have a guarantor. You may also need a bigger deposit, so it’s important to factor that into your plans.
All of this can sound pretty overwhelming, especially if this is your first time applying for a mortgage. We’re here to offer support at every stage, so you can turn to us with confidence.
How do I know if I am having a bad impact on my credit score?
The only way to know what kind of state your credit score is to obtain a full credit report. However, if you are someone who does or has done any of the following, you can expect your credit score to have taken a bit of a hit.
- Missing or being late with payments
- Having the wrong kind of credit card for your spending habits
- Being the subject of a County Court Judgement (CCJ)
- Just paying the minimum every month
- Having no credit history at all
A credit report can sometimes be inaccurate, and suffering from something like identity fraud can also have an impact. So, sit down, assess the situation and look at what is in your control to improve it.
