How long does adverse credit stay relevant to a remortgage?
Most lenders look back over the last 3-6 years, but the impact usually fades the older the event is. Waiting for a default or CCJ to age can open up more lender options, though it isn't always necessary.
Does self-employment make a bad credit remortgage harder?
It adds an extra layer of underwriting — usually 1-2 years of accounts or tax calculations — but it doesn't rule you out. Specialist lenders regularly assess self-employed applicants alongside adverse credit.
Should I try a product transfer before a full remortgage?
Often yes — if your current deal is ending, your existing lender may offer a product transfer without a new credit check, which is worth exploring first.
What LTV do I need for a bad credit remortgage?
The lower your loan-to-value, the more lenders are willing to overlook adverse credit. A 50% LTV remortgage is generally far more achievable than a 90% LTV one with the same credit profile.
Can I remortgage a buy-to-let property with bad credit?
Yes, though buy-to-let lenders typically focus more heavily on rental income covering the mortgage payment, alongside the usual review of your credit history and the property's loan-to-value.
