If you got the CCJ after taking out the mortgage, then you may be better off speaking to a whole of market broker than your current lender."Dream World" by The B Sharps....describes a lot of the posts in the Loans and Mortgage sections !!!0 -
You need to check your credit files (Experian, Equifax and Call Credit) as if registered in 2007 it should be off your credit files and unlikely to cause you as big an issue on an automated basis.I am a Mortgage Broker

In my earlier post. The question I posed is the direction that potential lenders will come from. Lenders credit scoring is as much determining the type of borrower you are, and your attitude to personal finance. Think of it as a beauty competition. Lenders receive more applications than they can advance mortgages on. That's the reality.0 -
It was july 2008 by the time it was issued0
