It will certainly go against you.
But if everything else looks good (e.g. decent, clean credit history other than that, decent deposit, decent income multiple / affordability) then I would have thought you'd be ok - especially if the defaults were a long time ago.0 -
They were in 2010 and 2008,
We were looking at doing new buy and we have £13k inc money for our fees, I'm not even looking at properties as I don't want to build my hopes up:staradmin Competition wins! :starmod:

Newbuy as in 95%?
With two defaults, I'd say that is very, very unlikely to happen for you.

Sorry I agree, incredibly unlikely.
If you are buying as 2 of you and only 1 has the defaults, depending on other variables you may be able to get in sole name but lots of considerations hereI am a Mortgage Broker

My other half is self employed too just to add to the difficulty!!
It's so frustrating as we've paid £855 a month in rent for the past year and our mortgage would be less

You need a new broker!
There is more than one way to skin a cat and it often takes a very experienced broker that has a think outside the box mentality.0 -
