FTB needs GOOD advice - BROKER NIGHTMARE!
Comments
-
Due to the nightmare already, and this having to happen in the next week to salvage relationships with the already patient seller and estate agents, hope is fading fast.
I would like to give it one more try, but where to find the good brokers?
So far i have been going on recomendations, what do I look for?0 -
How long has this beeen going on for?
As stated above also by homer, find yourself a good fbroker, if they are fee free whole of market advisers then at least you know they will work hard to get your case agreed
Give them all your information, and they should be able to tell you straight away if there is any chance of a mortgage or not.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.

Its not the defaults alone that are stopping you. At 95% you are high risk without the defaults. Things have changed and sub prime, albeit not heavy at high LTVs are going or gone.
10% deposit and you would get a mortgage but the rate may be higher.
Natwest have a habit of this, woolwich can do this also. Its to do with what the system they have.
I would not blame the brokers, although the 2nd should have called you.

My comment is that you are not High street "quality". The High street banks will put anything through and hope that something will stick to meet their targets. No care if it messes up the customer.
Have a look on Unbiased.co.uk
Also I suggest you get your credit file sorted, rent for another year (that will also help to settle your credit file) and save up to at least 10% to 15% deposit, with houseprices falling or being stagnant you should be able to reach that target if you try hard enough.0
