 Thank you for the quick reply - Credit rating is high and requested LTV is around 65%. You mention other scenarios, any examples - Thanks in advance !K_S said:
 @mcyicsk2 On it's own, it's unlikely to cause an issue. Depending on the rest of the scenario in the background, it could be relevant.mcyicsk2 said:Hi,
 Quick question I was hoping you could help with - How detailed do Natwest look at Bank statements for residential mortgage? My account is showing as being within agreed overdraft for last few months - could this cause an issue?
 Many Thanks
 Lenders don't necessarily need to review bank statements to make OD related assumptions, they get sufficient data from the credit-bureaus to do that.0

 @mcyicsk2 With a clean credit history and low-LTV, the OD usage should not cause any issues.mcyicsk2 said:

 Hello what’s the standard deposit rate for adverse credits mortgages? Thank you!haras_n0sirrah said:Thought I would start a thread where people can ask the brokers opinion on things @ACG @LRmortgage @kingstreet @Deleted_User (any other brokers want to chip in - these were the main other brokers who came to mind.
 It is definately an interesting market - probably the busiest I have ever been but at the same time lenders are sooo slow.
 Anyone got a question? Ask away

 @slou123 There's no standard deposit range as such, it can go all the way from 5% to 40% and depend on the details ie how bad the adverse is and the specific lender criteriaSlou123 said:

 To illustrate what I'm saying, have a look at the product range here from one prominent specialist lender -

 And another one - https://intermediaries.aldermore.co.uk/media/1069/residential-mortgages-product-guide-pdf.pdf

            Hi, my application went in through broker at Coventry building society around 5 weeks ago. My income is complex as I have full time NHS employment and also Ltd company income, combined is around 50k (applying for £180,000 mortgage) we have had bank holiday and lender came back asking for P60 and the accountant certificate which took a couple of weeks to come back. This was sent in on Monday and heard nothing yet.I have a clean credit history with nothing adverse etc.
 should I be worried or am I being impatient? The latter being quite likely for me.Many thanks0

 If K_S doesn't mind me adding to his/her response, the mortgage rate you will achieve depends on two things - time and deposit.Slou123 said:

 The more time elapsed since the adverse credit; the lower the deposit required and vice versa. You will get away with adverse being newer, with a bigger deposit.I am a mortgage broker.

            We have had our Halifax Resi approved (Finally!)...
 The offer is valid until end of Sept..
 We aren't part of a chain however the sellers are downsizing and still haven't found anywhere...
 Do lenders extend offers if things don't complete by the offer expiry date?0

 The offer extension policy/process differs from lender to lender. With Halifax, if you haven't completed by 30 Sep, you'll have to pick a new product.I am a Mortgage Adviser - You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

            Moving into rented and travelling for work for 3-5 years.
 Moving mortgage to BTL (170k LTV with 230k VAL).
 Ideally interest only.
 Rental Income would be £850 PCM
 Salary would be circa 50k min.
 Is this doable?0
