We have had an offer accepted on a property however two high street banks have declined us due to my partners bad credit record. He’s had a few missed payments this year so our mortgage advisor is trying Aldemore.
I’ve been researching and read that one of their requirements is no missed payments in the last 3 months and only 1 missed payment in 1 year. My partner has missed 6 payments in the past year for silly reasons!!
What are the chances of us getting approved by Aldemore and are there any other lenders we could try?

    So none by the sounds of it, but ask on the mortgages board. 

    Use the opportunity to get a new broker if he's just slamming applications into high street lenders.
  • I think you are going to struggle to get anyone to give you a mortgage at the current time with so many missed payments in the last year.

    You really should have looked into this prior to making an offer on a property.

    Try the mortgage board. There are a couple of mortgage advisors on there who specialise in adverse lending but I wouldn't get your hopes up I'm afraid.

    @LTH93 If your broker is responsible for the 2 declined high street lender apps with 6 very recent missed payments, I'd run a mile and find another broker!

    I don't do a lot of adverse myself so can't comment on your chances, hopefully someone with more knowledge in these matters will. Good luck!
