Buy to Let mortgages with bad credit
If a bad credit history is hindering your ambitions of becoming a landlord, our Buy to Let mortgages could be the solution.
Designed to take into account your individual circumstances and affordability, our common sense approach to lending allows us to be more flexible on income and credit status, instead of looking at just your credit score. You do not need any previous experience of owning property with first time buyers and first time landlords welcome. We also don't enforce a minimum income amount.
Interest only options are available, allowing you to keep your monthly costs down and repaying in full once further finance has been finalised.
Think you've got bad credit, but need a buy-to-let mortgage?
Unlike many buy-to-let mortgage providers, we don't use your credit score to set your rate or help us decide if we can lend to you. Instead, we'll listen to your story, so we have the full picture of how things reached this point.
Because we understand life doesn't always run smoothly, and we don't think having adverse credit should get in the way of your ambitions as a landlord. Instead, we get to know the person behind the numbers, and make our decision based on your individual circumstances.
We can ignore:
- Missed payments on personal loans (e.g. missed payments on credit cards, mobile phone bills etc.).
- All CCJs and Defaults under £300, and any under £3,000 that have been satisfied
- Unsecured arrears in the last 12 months
- And adverse credit events more than 12 months old don’t factor in product selection
In fact, we'll give you the same options as someone with an applicant with an A+ credit history – meaning you can benefit from our lowest-ever Buy to Let mortgage rates.
