Remortgaging with Bad Credit |
![]() Low interest rates and the increase in the range of mortgage products over the past few years due to increased competition have meant that there has never been a better time to review your existing mortgage arrangements, even if you have a poor credit history caused by previous unpaid debts or late payments. To put it simply, there is a good chance you could save money by remortgaging. What is a remortgage? Remortgaging means switching to a different mortgage deal. This could be with your existing mortgage lender, but more often than not it will be with a different bank or building society. If you have credit problems, or have been turned down by a mainstream mortgage lender, then a specialist adverse credit mortgage lender may be the answer. In the past, many people never bothered to remortgage, but it looks like that situation is finally changing.
