Will not affect credit score

If you have bad credit and need to remortgage your home, then don’t worry as we should be able to help. We understand there can be lots of reasons for people having an impaired credit profile and will look into your circumstances to make sure you’re offered the most suitable solution.

A mortgage is not only the biggest financial commitment for most people, but also the biggest headache if it becomes difficult to make the monthly repayments. Remortgaging can be a great option if you’re reaching the end of your current terms and would like a better rate as part of a new deal – especially if you’re in debt.

Are you in debt and would like to remortgage?

There are many reasons for getting into debt, such as unemployment, ill health or the breakdown of a relationship. Getting behind with bills for one month can soon escalate into a much bigger problem if you start relying on credit to pay for household costs – which then leads to increased debt, higher monthly repayments and marks on your credit file if you get behind with your bills.

Bad credit is also a bit of a sweeping statement. The thing is missing just one payment, for example if you forget to pay a credit card one month or you don’t have enough money in your bank account for a direct debit to pay your mobile phone bill, can leave a mark on your credit file and lower your credit score. Did you know a missed credit card payment could affect your credit score for three years?

Bad credit can be a result of CCJs, mortgage defaults, IVAs or bills that have been paid late. You can even have a low credit score if you’re self-employed, with no proof of income, so you simply haven’t built up a credit history yet.

If you’d like to remortgage your home but have a low credit score, we’ll use our experience of the specialist lending industry to provide you with the most suitable solution based on your circumstances.

From the very first contact through (what was a complex and hugely frustrating conveyancing process), to the day of completion, Oak Mortgages were the shining light that got us through. Sarah and her team were brilliant. They were responsive, caring, empathetic, knowledgeable, professional, and human at each and every stage. We are so grateful that we used Sarah and Oak Mortgages and highly recommend them to anyone wanting to guarantee that authentic, trustworthy approach from professionals who care. A top class act - 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to Abby and the admin team at Oak Mortgages who have been fantastic in helping me secure a remortgage on my property. From my first phone call to Abby I was filled with confidence and the experience with the team was brilliant, especially when other companies involved were not so brilliant the Oak Mortgage team pulled out all the stops to make sure completion happened. I would highly recommend this company and will use their services in the future. Thank you again.

Alex at Oak Mortgages has been an absolute life-saver. After being let down by a previous mortgage advisor who wanted me to take a massive risk with no guarantees, I contacted Oak Mortgages and was put in touch with Alex. ​Not only did he find me a mortgage with the exact same lender without having to take that risk, but he also got me accepted! His knowledge is top-notch, his communication is brilliant—he always picked up the phone and replied to emails super fast with regular updates. As a first-time buyer, Alex was hands-down the best part of the entire buying process. ​I am now happily settled in my new home, and I have Alex to thank for it. I will 100% be using Oak Mortgages again in the future (and hopefully Alex!). Thank you so much!
