Of course Brokers and Mortgage Advisors are aware of this too as they are aware of the business module used by sub prime lenders. Thankfully, not many advisors here advocate sub prime lenders and will whenever possible provide advice on the best deal and keep borrowers in the mainstream markets, even if it means paying a 'point or two' above, as the long term effects based on the unknown can be very costly overall in other ways.
Sometimes it is better to rent and fix your credit yourself than take out a mortgage with a sub prime lender...it really is a different market!0 -
I love this forum, as you learn something new everyday! even if you haven't got a clue what some people are talking about!!!!
Still waiting for mortgagemama to give some advice!

mortgagemama,
Sorry to hear about the cricket ball incident! I know how much that hurts....
As for email, I have none as I think you must have taken the wrong address of me, therefore when your feeling better could you phone me asap.
In the mean time could you email me at the following what you had sent to my other addy:
david.griffiths@mail2web.com

Did you have a nice holiday? thanks for the email. Things will likely have changed a lot now since we last spoke so I will have to look at it again.
Give me a shout when you are ready.
