Bankruptcy & mortgages

Can anyone help me please... I had to declare bankruptcy nearly seven years ago and I was wandering which, if any, banks or building societies would give me and my partner a mortgage. Lloyds want a huge deposit and Santander won't help because of the bankruptcy. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    You need to speak to a whole of market broker for this - no one on the forum will advise going to a specific lender.

    You will probably need more than 5% deposit though...

    Good luck
