could i get a mortgage

i would like some help. is it entirely impossible for me to get a mortgage as i am a temporary worker. i work for an agency in a whisky distillery where i have been for 9 months now. i have never been laid off in this nine months and am referred to as a "keeper" because of the skills base i have attained while being here. i am 23 years old and have some bad credit from a few years back which i am repaying. does anyone know where i would be able to try for a mortgage. also i live in scotland

ANY HELP WOULD BE REALLY GRATEFULLY RECIEVED
thanks

scott

    Probably not a problem to get a mortgage but you might need a bigger deposit depending on how much adverse shows up

    The usual advice an independent mortgage adviser and preferably one that will work fees free
