remortgage help

Hi

I currently have a mortgage for 150,000 have never defaulted on my mortgage, but have on all my credit cards which now some are with recovery agents. I want to sell my house and my mum sell hers and buy one large house and still only keep the original 150,000 mortgage. Will I have to have a new mortgage? and if I do what are my chances of my lender agreeing? hope someone can help

    You could apply to 'port' your current mortgage to a new property but this is at the lenders discretion and subject to meeting criteria. This is assuming your current mortgage is portable.

    You will struggle to get a mortgage with defaults, but it depends how much for and when.

    Speak to a 'Whole of Market' adviser to see if there is anything that can be done

  • Thank you, I am going to try and speak to someone tommorow, Iwas hoping that because my mum would be giving 150,000 it would help. Is that just me hoping?
