Hi me & my partner want to buy a place together.
My credit score is low & his is pretty much perfect do you think we will have any issues getting a mortgage? He owns a place already which we would sell & we would also have a good deposit.
Thanks!

Most probably if your name appears when doing the credit checks. Have you looked how to improve your credit score?
Lenders prefer the best credit scores at the moment due to limited funds.:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.
