    Specialist brokers will assist with ‘bad credit’ applications, however, you are normally expected to have a minimum of 10% deposit and you WILL pay a higher interest, which on a mortgage could be crucifying for some monthly and just not worth it so waiting til the 6 years are up could save thousands.
