  • maybe better posted on mortgage boards?
  • If you are only 18 months out of an IVA, would you not be better off trying to build up some savings instead of looking for a loan to get into debt again.

    Someone 18 months out of an IVA would still be regarded as iffy by most reputable lending institutions anyway.

    Its almost as if you've not learnt a single damned thing from being in an IVA. Quite clearly you didn't work out how you got there in the first place given the rush to start the whole cycle over again.

    Bit hard since each individuals circumstances are going to be different.

    Anyway, do you really want to secure finance against your home, its not advised.

    Why the rush for a secured loan or remortgage ?
