    You are only investigating this now, having made an offer?

    If you had doubts, you should have obtained an agreement in principle before you started the buying process; preferably with a lender with a reliable "hard search" system.

    Ensure you state any recently repaid debit balances on the application, ticking the "to be repaid on, or before completion" box.

    Assuming you will use a credit scoring lender, your overall application data should see you accepted.

    We have an agreement in principle from London and Country and also Countrywide.

    Lenders update credit report information once a month, so the new balances should be reflected soon.

    So you have already had two brokers run credit scores.

    Please deal with only one broker or everyone will lose out.
