I have been holding off saying this as I didnt want to unless you got something sorted which looks to be the case.Dizzbee said:Hello thought id update. I am eligible to apply for a mortgage at the end if January after a default comes off my report. I have successfuly managed to get a Bridging loan and am hoping to complete next week.
I still need to find an additional £28k but am hoping friends & family will loan me the money 🙂 phew !!!
In future dont rush in, get advice! This is still a horrible situation as its going to cost you a lot of money but obvioulsy not as much as if there was no plan and you oculd not complete.
I am glad you got this sorted because I was a bit worried.
Let us know when you get it fully sorted with a proper mortgage and not just a bridge.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
