Mortgage after bankruptcy
Bankruptcy has an order date and, usually, a discharge date. Those two dates are the start of the file. They are not an eligibility clock this site can run.
What this page will not do
- Discharge does not remove the record on the date it happens.
- Scotland uses sequestration. Say if that is the order you have. The questions are similar and the documents are not identical.
- It will not name a lender, a product, or an approval chance.
Questions
- Is there a set number of years after discharge?
- No number on this page. Lenders publish their own criteria, and a broker has to apply them.
- Will you tell me my chances?
- No. An approval probability would be a lending judgement.
MortgageConnector is a mortgage broker introducer and information service. We do not provide regulated mortgage advice. Where appropriate, we can introduce you to an FCA-authorised mortgage broker who can assess your circumstances and provide advice.
The matching service is free for you. Partner brokers pay MortgageConnector for introductions. If you ask for an introduction, the details you submit are shared with the selected partner. The broker is responsible for regulated advice. Check the firm on the FCA Register.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
These figures are illustrative.
An FCA-authorised broker can look at the actual income, credit and property. MortgageConnector introduces you. We do not choose the mortgage.
