mortgage with bad credit ?

Options
i messed up 3 yrs ago. since i will start work soon in london with good pay i plan on getting mortgage in the next 2 years.

so, if i put deposit of say 100k down on a £160.000 mortgage would any company borrow me the extra £60.000 over say 10 years.

surely any company would know if i was willing to place 100k deposit then im hardly likely to default or i would lose the lot

    Do haven!!!8217;t defined what messed up means but in 90% of cases with that level of deposit there will be options via a Mortgage Broker.

    That level of deposit, 5 years down the line (when you come to make an application) if you can not get high street rates I would be surprised.

    I don’t think the op has 100k deposit. If so I hope there a legitimate trace for it.

    I guess this was a good read
