    Hi there. As you have not had a mortgage for the last few years you should be able to apply as if you had never had a mortgage although you can mention it to whoever is dealing with your application. Shouldn't make any difference. Hope this helps. Jo:p

    I am not certain that it makes any odds if you are or if you are not a FTB these days, in relation to what deals are about.
