Where to go for a re-mortgage????????

Hi,

Make this simple

Mortgage is £79,000
and need a £95,000 mortgage
It is within our means and money would be spent on the House itself!
I do have a CCJ which is still being paid, I know this will go against me,
But is anyone lending , even if you have a CCJ

CCJ was in 2004 for £5740
Its down to £2700 now, but is ongoing, payments have been ontime always!

But what to do???

Where to go???

any help?

k.

  • What's the house (realistically) valued at?
  • How are you going to afford the repayments on the additional £16,000 of mortgage borrowing if you've got a CCJ against your for an unpaid debt that was originally £5740, and is now only £2700? Pay off that £2700 before even considering borrowing any more money.

    Parts of the house are in repair!

    A re-mortgage is my only answer, I pay the CCJ a agreed payment each month and on time.

    I cant wait for the windows to fall out, to repay the CCJ.
    CCJ expires 2010.

    They said no, do not do Credit repair, told them I am paying back the CCJ with ontime payments......



    A Flat NO!

    Even if there was a lender that would ignore the large CCJ, then your household income doesn't really support the larger mortgage.

    Take a copy of your credit file to an independent, whole of market mortgage broker for them to have a look for you, see if anything can be done, but my gut instinct says that get the CCJ paid off, overpay it if you can, get rid of it!
