Obtaining a Mortgage when in debt

Hi Guys,
I've recently plucked up the courage to deal with my debt problem and was wondering how easy or hard it is to get a mortgage.
I've recently got married and we want to 'get on' in life, so we were thinking of buying a property but don't know if there is a solution.
Has anybody had any experience with the matter?

I think you'll have to be a bit more specific. "Deal with my debt problem" could mean anything. Your wife's situation is also relevant, as are your earnings, the size of the mortgage you have in mind and any savings/assets either of you have.

If you can't cope with your current level of debt, you are not in a position to take on any extra debt, secured or unsecured."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0
