New Build with 10% deposit

Hi,
Just after some advice on whether anyone knows any mortgage providers that accept a 10% deposit on new builds?

I have a default from 5 years ago that has been fully satisfied and also some payday loans on my file from the same time, which probably narrows the search a bit more!

We've looked at Leeds building society, does anyone have any experience of these with adverse credit?

Thanks

    There are a small number of lenders who will lend upto 90% on a newbuild house, fewer on a flat.

    Leeds has published criteria on what adverse it will accept (max amount, registration and satisfaction date etc).

    You need to a broker if you want comparisons.
