Welcome to Mortgages By Louise, where we specialise in helping clients in Blackpool find a bad credit mortgage. We understand that financial setbacks happen, and our goal is to give you the support and guidance you need to overcome these challenges and secure the mortgage that suits your situation.
We work closely with specialist lenders who are experienced at helping people with bad credit. While a bad credit mortgage will come with slightly higher interest rates, and you might need a larger deposit, some high street lenders may be flexible and willing to accept a small amount of adverse credit.
We always explore these options first to secure the best terms possible. Having an updated credit report is useful, as it helps us find the right deal for you. Don’t let past financial issues hold you back. Contact our team today to explore the bad credit mortgage options available to you.

Bad credit mortgages can be more challenging to secure, but understanding how they work can help. Here’s what you need to know:
Eligibility: Bad credit mortgages, also known as adverse credit mortgages, are designed for individuals who have a less-than-perfect credit history. This could include missed payments, defaults, bankruptcies, or CCJs (County Court Judgements).
Higher Interest Rates: Because lenders see bad credit mortgages as a higher risk, they often come with higher interest rates than standard mortgages. These rates reflect the increased risk involved in lending to someone with poor credit.
Larger Deposit: For bad credit mortgages, lenders typically require a larger deposit, usually between 15% and 30%. The exact amount depends on the lender and your financial situation.
Lender Requirements: Every lender offering bad credit mortgages has different criteria. Some focus on your recent financial improvements, while others may evaluate your overall credit history. The mortgage terms will depend on how your situation fits their criteria.
At Mortgages By Louise, we’ll help you understand your options and guide you toward finding the right lender for your needs. Contact us today on 07530591219 to find out how our bad credit mortgage experts can help you.

Q1: Will bad credit mortgages always have higher interest rates? A: Yes, bad credit mortgages typically come with higher interest rates because of the higher risk for lenders. However, as you improve your credit score, you may be able to remortgage to a better deal in the future.
Q2: How can I improve my chances of getting approved for a bad credit mortgage? A: To improve your chances, try saving a larger deposit, maintaining accurate financial records, and improving your credit score by paying bills on time and reducing debt. Demonstrating stable employment and consistent income also helps. A mortgage advisor can provide further guidance tailored to your situation.
Q3: Can I still get a mortgage after bankruptcy? A: Yes, you can get a mortgage after bankruptcy. While it may be more challenging, there are lenders who specialise in bad credit mortgages and are willing to work with individuals who have been through bankruptcy. Your chances improve if you have a stable income, a larger deposit, and a commitment to rebuilding your credit.
Q4: What is a bad credit mortgage? A: A bad credit mortgage is a home loan designed for people with poor credit histories. These mortgages are specifically created for individuals who have experienced financial difficulties, such as missed payments, defaults, or bankruptcies, and might struggle to qualify for standard mortgages.
Q5: How much deposit is required for a bad credit mortgage? A: For a bad credit mortgage, you’ll likely need a larger deposit compared to standard loans. While standard mortgages may require a deposit of 5-10%, bad credit mortgages usually need between 15-30%, depending on the lender and your circumstances.
