FAQs for Specialist Mortgages in Sunderland

What is considered having bad credit for a mortgage in Sunderland?

Accorion Arrow

Your credit score is essentially an overview of your finances. The lowest number your credit score could be is 0 with the highest being 999. There are ways to improve your credit score and improve your finances, sometimes it just takes a bit of time to improve.



If you have bad credit, it still may be possible for you to get a mortgage, however, you may only be able to access specialist mortgage products.

Can I remove a CCJ from my credit file in Sunderland?

Accorion Arrow

Upon receiving a CCJ, you will get a month window where you will get the chance to pay off the CCJ. If you pay this off within the month, the CCJ can be removed from your credit file.



If you fail to make up your amount owed within this month, the CCJ will remain on your credit file. If you pay it off at any point after this month, the CCJ will remain on your file but be listed at “Settled”. It will remain on your file for 6 years.

When should debt consolidation in Sunderland be considered?

Accorion Arrow

If you are struggling financially and you have a low credit score, then you might need to look at debt consolidation in London. Although debt consolidation should be taken with caution, you can remortgage to consolidate your debt into your mortgage. This can help you manage your finances on a monthly basis and help you pay off your debt over a longer period.



Our mortgage advisors in Sunderland will make sure that this is the right decision for you before you remortgage for debt consolidation. You could opt for the alternative and start a debt management plan (DPD) if you are really struggling. This may also help you improve your credit.



You should think carefully before securing other debts against your home. By adding your unsecured debt to your mortgage, which is secured on your home, you may endanger your home if you can’t make the necessary repayments.



Although the total monthly cost of servicing your debt may have been reduced, the total repayment cost may still have increased because the duration of your mortgage is longer than it may have taken to repay the original debts.

Common Specialist Mortgage Scenarios

Property Down Valuation

Accorion Arrow

If the bank has arranged for a surveyor to carry out a property survey on the home you’re looking to purchase and you then find out that the offer you made and had accepted is more than the actual market value of the property in question, this is what is known as a Property Down Valuation.

Though it may still be possible to work with the agreed price, the chances are that your lender will remove themselves from the deal. If you have the ability to make up the difference between your offer and how much the property is actually worth, then you may still be in with a chance of finding mortgage success.

Divorce & Separation Mortgage Advice

Accorion Arrow

Perhaps times have gotten tough in your personal life and you are going through a divorce or separation. Making arrangements for the next step of your life can be difficult, but even more so if you have a mortgage together. You must sort this out as soon as possible, as it can become rather challenging the longer you leave it.

Remove a Person From a Mortgage

Accorion Arrow

Often linked in with the previous mortgage scenario (though not always the case), there may come a time when you are looking to remove your own name or your ex-partner’s name from your mortgage. Depending on how stable each of you are financially, you may find that your options are limited. This is because your affordability is only based on a single income, rather than from a couple.

Single Name Mortgages for Married Applicants

Accorion Arrow

If you’re married and looking to obtain a mortgage on a home for you and your partner, generally speaking, mortgage lenders would prefer both applicants being named on the mortgage, though you may still be able to obtain a mortgage in only one name.

Shared Ownership

Accorion Arrow

The Shared Ownership Scheme is a very useful tool for allowing mortgage applicants to obtain a mortgage as a share, initially on only a percentage of the property. The percentage is usually somewhere between 25%-75%. Whoever owns the remaining share of the property, most likely to be the local authority, you will pay them back in a monthly rent alongside your mortgage repayments.

Professional Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

Professional mortgages are only accessible by very specific lines of work. It’s an incredibly niche section of the mortgage market. Because of this, you should definitely contact a specialist like ourselves to learn more about these types of mortgages.

Second Home Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

If you are planning to take out a mortgage on more than one home, you will need to showcase your financial stability to the lender, proving that you can afford enough to cover the costs of two simultaneous mortgage payments. This is something we are able to help you prepare for.

Holiday Home/Let Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

Holiday lets operate in a similar to the way buy to lets do. The difference here is that you won’t always have a tenant, meaning that at times (especially during off-seasons), you may be paying monthly costs on an empty property. Because of situations like this, lenders need to be confident that you can afford the costs of your mortgage payments at all times, whether someone is paying rent or not.

New Build Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

New builds can often be a little more costly to invest in than properties that are slightly older. If you are finding it difficult to save up for your primary deposit, you could find a helping hand in using the government’s Help to Buy Equity Loan Scheme to purchase yourself a home.

Non-Standard Construction Property Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

A ‘non-standard’ property is the name given to properties that are not built from typical building materials like bricks or mortar. For you to take out a mortgage on a non-standard property, you will definitely need a specialist mortgage product. It is also greatly recommended that you get a full structural property survey if you’re wanting to buy a non-standard property.

Multiple Applicant/House of Multiple Occupation Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

HMO properties are pretty much just buy to lets with 4-6 tenants. You may typically see these being used for student accommodation. HMOs can be challenging to work with, so we suggest that you obtain specialist buy to let mortgage advice in Sunderland before you jump in headfirst with a mortgage like this.

Mortgages Past Retirement Date/Lifetime Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

If you have built up an amount of equity in your property, you may be able to release some of this and turn it into cash, through taking out a lifetime mortgage. We would suggest speaking to a specialist mortgage advisor in Sunderland if you are over the age of 55 and this is what you’d like to do.

Offset Mortgages

Accorion Arrow

Offset mortgages combines a savings account with your mortgage. This mortgage type could potentially be a good method of helping you access competitive mortgage products and interest rates.
