Hi,


I want to remortgage but am currently signed off work sick. Will this affect my application?


TIA,
Lynne

  • If you go to a new lender then it's likely to be an issue, if you remain with your existing lender then potentially not.

    Who's your mortgage with now if you don't mind me asking?

    Have you asked First Direct what their policy is in this?

    It's likely to be a deal breaker unless you have a return to work date, although can't be sure as they are direct only
