If your credit history isn’t perfect, you might have already been told “no” by a high-street bank. But there’s good news a credit repair mortgage could help you get on (or back onto) the property ladder while improving your credit at the same time. At Clever Mortgages and Oak Mortgages, we specialise in helping UK borrowers find the right solution, even with a challenging credit history.
What is a Credit Repair Mortgage?
A credit repair mortgage is a specialist mortgage designed for people with a poor credit history such as missed payments, defaults, County Court Judgments (CCJs), IVAs, or bankruptcy.
Unlike standard mortgages, these products are offered by lenders who are willing to look beyond your credit score. They focus on your current affordability, stability, and potential to get back on track financially.
Who Are They Suitable For?
Credit repair mortgages are often a good fit for:
- People with recent or historic credit issues (within the last six years)
- Borrowers with no credit history at all
- Those who’ve been declined by mainstream lenders
- Individuals coming out of an IVA, or bankruptcy
- Individuals in or coming out of a Debt Management Plan (DMP)
- Self-employed applicants with limited trading history and some credit challenges
Reasons to Take a Credit Repair Mortgage
- Get on the Property Ladder Sooner
You don’t always need to wait six years for bad credit to disappear from your file there is a lot of lenders who will consider you now.
- Rebuild Your Credit Profile
Making every mortgage payment on time helps repair your credit score over time, improving your future borrowing options.
- Specialist Lender Flexibility
These lenders consider your full financial story, not just the numbers on your credit report.
- Step Towards Better Rates
A credit repair mortgage might have a higher interest rate initially, but after a few years of good payment history, you can often remortgage to a better deal.
