We map your options

We review your income, credit and goals, then search the whole market, including lenders you can’t reach on your own.

3

Has the bank said no?

We’re here to support your journey to becoming a homeowner or property investor. Whether you have a patchy credit file or simply feel overwhelmed by the process, we offer independent advice, practical information and tools to make you a stronger applicant.

As whole-of-market brokers, we can reach mortgage deals that are not readily available on the high street. A decline is rarely the end of the story — it’s usually a sign you need a lender who understands your situation.

Frequently asked mortgage questions

Can I get a mortgage with poor credit?

Yes, often. A mortgage is a loan secured on your property, so lenders look at risk. Missed payments, defaults, CCJs or IVAs make some lenders cautious, but specialist lenders assess your full circumstances and may still offer a suitable deal.

How can a mortgage adviser help me?

An adviser knows the whole market, not just one bank’s range. They match your circumstances to the right lender, prepare your application and guide you until completion — saving time and avoiding unnecessary credit searches.

I’ve been rejected before — should I keep applying?

Not blindly. Every application leaves a search on your file, and repeated declines can hurt your score. Speak to a broker first so your next application goes to a lender likely to say yes.

How much can I borrow?

It depends on the property price, your deposit, your income and your outgoings. Lenders often use around 4–5 times income, but each has its own affordability rules. Our calculator gives an estimate; an adviser gives a real answer.

Does a bad credit mortgage cost more?

Historically yes, but not always. With the right broker, some clients secure terms close to high street rates. Pricing depends on how recent and severe the issues are and the size of your deposit.

Are credit blacklists real?

No. Lenders use the information on your credit file to judge risk, but there is no secret blacklist. A past problem does not automatically close every door.

What deposit will I need?

Typically 5–10% for standard cases. With adverse credit, lenders may ask for 10–25% or more depending on the issue and how long ago it happened. An adviser can give you a realistic figure.

Why choose FINTARHET?

We take on complex cases others turn away, give honest advice first time and keep you informed throughout. Our team is built around people, not paperwork.
