If you have a damaged credit record, you might find that your mortgage application is rejected by a mainstream lender. These days, that is nothing to worry about. One in four people in the UK would be turned down by the main High Street lenders. However, there are a number of lenders specialising in this sub-prime sector (also known as non-conforming or adverse credit). You may have to pay slightly higher interest rates, but a full range of fixed, capped, discounts, trackers and flexible mortgages should be available to you.

There are mortgages available to you whether you have County Court Judgements (CCJ's), defaults, missed mortgage payments or even if you are discharged bankrupt. Rates will obviously depend on your credit history. You can get a copy of your credit report from Experian by calling 0870 241 6212 or you can apply online by clicking here.
