I went BR 13 1/2 years ago after an abusive marriage. I was discharged 13 years ago, after a few months.
I followed the clean up and built my history slowly. I have an excellent credit score whatever that means. My file is heathy and I have lots of lines of credit which are used sensibly.
I have just got a mortgage (didn’t need a broker). I was accepted instantly, subject to valuation at 95%. I have the offer now and it was all very quick.
I declared the BR as it was an ever question on the mortgage app AND at the legal stage.
It can be done.
