Hi
Just wondered if anybody has had a mortgage through Melton Mowbray BS and if so how the application went?
One for the brokers, is the decision in principle from MMBS reliable?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I called them twice for a self build. I spoke to the same person both times, he was rude and unhelpful. So I never went any further.

No not at the moment. Spoke to a couple but they couldn't help.
We are looking for a 95% LTV on a shared ownership property. The big hurdle has been the fact that my wife had an IVA in the past (settled May 2012).
Before giving up I done some research and I could see that the criteria for Melton was that they would consider IVA after 4 years.
Have a mortgage in principle and now going through full application. Just wondered how reliable the mortgage in principle is.
Joint Salary - 58k
5% deposit on 40% share (full price £290000)
Mortgage required £110000
We did plan on saving longer for a bigger deposit but this house came up and it would be our dream home. Plus got married a few months ago and that was bloody expensive...0 -

Thanks for the feedback it's appreciated.
I think I must have read every mortgage thread on these forums over the last week or so trying to put my mind at ease.
Our advisor has been nothing but helpful so fingers crossed.0 -

I submitted a full application last week (via broker) and still haven't heard a thing!0
