Remortgage with bad credit

Video transcript

When you need to secure a new home loan deal, you may find that it can be difficult if your credit record isn't perfect, but First Choice Finance is on hand to help you to remortgage with bad credit.

Everyone will need to remortgage at some point – once your initial term has run out, you'll be placed on your current lender's standard variable rate, which probably won't work out as the best deal for you, so you'll need to go looking for a better one.

You may also try to remortgage in the middle of your existing deal as you try to find a better rate. Just consider the fact that you may need to pay a break fee if you choose this course of action, so that needs to be factored in when you make your decision.

As if it isn't difficult enough, trying to remortgage with bad credit throws up more issues to consider as it can reduce your options as lenders may be less willing to offer you favourable rates if you've struggled to pay back what you owed previously.

Fortunately, First Choice Finance is on hand. We're a broker, so we have access to the whole of the market, including products that are intended for people who are in your situation. That means we can identify a deal that will work for you.

So if you want to remortgage with bad credit, visit firstchoicefinance.co.uk, call 0333 003 1505 from a mobile or 0800 298 3000 from a mobile and we'll be more than happy to help.
