Mortgages, Remortgages, Secured Loans and Personal Home Loans
42. Do you have adverse credit history?
Do you have adverse or bad credit? Do you need a Mortgage or Loan? Do you feel that your financial worries will never end, or that you are struggling helplessly with your debts? It's a common problem for people to find themselves with negative credit histories and many high street lenders do not like to consider adverse credit mortgages, despite the fact that roughly 25% of all people applying for a mortgage or loan have some form of bad credit history.
Those who should be able to help you may want only to deal with those customers who have faultless credit histories. Though now many lenders actually specialise in customers with poor credit histories, offering the option to apply for adverse credit mortgages, which may even qualify you for lower remortgage rates.
Anyone with bad credit can get an adverse credit secured loan, despite your past credit history. Adverse credit secured loans are loans which require you to offer the lender some form of security. This most often takes the form of property. The property used to secure the loan could be currently mortgaged or owned outright. If it currently has a mortgage attached to it, a second secured loan would be considered a second charge. If the property is owned outright, then the loan is referred to as a first charge.
By using property to secure the loan, lenders can offer you a lower interest rate on the loan, as well as a better repayment term. This is because the lender assumes much less risk than if the loan was unsecured. Your property is used as collateral against the loan in the event they are unable to repay the loan in the agreed upon time frame. So why not apply for an adverse credit mortgage, to help you in keeping your finances, your home and your family, on track.
