    • Has anyone been in a similar situation? - THIS IS CERTAINLY NOT SOMETHING NEW TO THE BROKER
    • Am I right in thinking a joint mortgage is likely off the table now? - NO, IT IS V MUCH STILL ON THE TABLE
    • Is there still a realistic chance of approval in my husband’s sole name? - SOUNDS LIKE IT - BUT NOT NECESSARY
    • How accurate are affordability calculators, assuming a 20% deposit and debts cleared? - DEPENDS WHO USES THEM AND WHAT THEY PUT IN

    All you need do here is mention your concerns to the Broker. Nationwide would not be progressing at all if there were a major credit problem. There are plenty of lending options based on what you describe.
