Fixed Rate & want to move

Hi,

Im hoping for some advice before I approach Nationwide.

Im currently on a 5yr Fixed Rate with just over a year to go before it ends.

I would like to move this summer. The problem I have is I have had a CCJ & default since i took the mortgage.

I dont want to increase my lending just transfer my existing mortgage to a new property. Does anyone think this could be a problem or will Nationwide allow me to transfer it to a new property?

Thanks in advance.

Funk.

  • My current mortgage is for 79k Prop is worth 140k.

    I am looking at props for the same amount.

    I do have 30k in savings, which I didn't want to touch for various reasons so could use that if worse came to worse.

    Only way to find out for sure would be to apply but I imagine it would be a straight decline with the adverse credit.
  • anyone else have anymore info?

    Depending on how much and when ccj/default occured, you will struggle, I think your only hope would be Nationwide, provided their risk/exposure is not increased they may go for it.

  • Thanks for the replies.

    The CCJ was in 2007, have just contacted the court to get it set aside.

    I think the exposure will be less as I will put more of savings into it and will be borrowing less.

    What do you think my chances will be?
