Adverse Credit Mortgages

---

‘Adverse credit’ is an alternative term for ‘bad credit’, a widely-used phrase referring to events, actions or items on someone’s financial history or credit record. Generally indicating something that has had a negative impact on an individual’s credit score, it is used to define County Court Judgements (CCJs), bankruptcies, repossessions, default notices, late payments and other adverse credit events that may appear.

If you have any adverse credit events on your credit reports, then you are likely to find it more difficult to obtain loans or mortgages, and at a higher interest rate than if you had applied with a healthy credit history.

Your options when it comes to which lenders to deal with, and the rates they will charge you, will be determined by the level and type of adverse credit on your record, and the amount of money you want to borrow in proportion to the value of the property in question – also known as the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio.
