Remortgaging on or After a DMP — What You Actually Need to Know

A Debt Management Plan is an informal arrangement with your creditors that appears on your credit file but not on a public register. Specialist lenders consider both active and completed DMPs when you remortgage. Your current lender is under no obligation to offer you a product transfer, and its decision has no bearing on whether specialist lenders will consider you: they assess your current circumstances, equity and credit profile.

DMP criteria are driven mainly by how long the plan has been running and how cleanly you have conducted it. As a guide, with equity playing the part a deposit does on a purchase:

DMP statusEquity neededLender landscape
Active, under 12 months25%–30%Very limited, highly specialist pool
Active, 12–24 months15%–25%Specialist adverse lenders
Active, 2+ years10%–15%Broader specialist panel
Completed / cleared5%–10%Near-prime and mainstream lenders

A single unarranged overdraft fee or missed bill since entering a DMP will usually cause an automatic decline with specialist underwriters, so a genuinely clean payment record on the DMP matters more than almost anything else.

Guide only. On a remortgage your equity plays the part a deposit does on a purchase. Lender policy changes, so criteria are confirmed live before any application.

The first step is a free, no-obligation assessment where Darryl reviews your full situation and gives you an honest picture of what is possible, before any application is made and before anything touches your credit file. For the full picture see the bad credit remortgage guide.

✅ Bad Credit We Specialise In

⚖️
CCJs
County Court Judgments — satisfied or unsatisfied, recent or historic. We know which lenders look past them.
📋
Defaults
Single or multiple defaults across telecoms, utilities, credit cards or loans. Age and amount matter — we know how.
📑
IVA / DMP
Currently in or recently completed an IVA or Debt Management Plan. Options exist — we'll find them.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I remortgage while on a DMP? ›
Yes, but it is more challenging than after completion. Some specialist lenders will consider an active DMP if you have been maintaining payments consistently and have enough equity, typically 25%+ for a newer plan.
Is it better to wait until my DMP is complete before remortgaging? ›
Generally yes. Once your DMP is completed and marked as satisfied on your credit file your options improve significantly. If you are close to completion, Darryl can advise whether waiting or applying now is the better strategy.
How much equity do I need to remortgage with a DMP? ›
As a guide, an active DMP under 12 months old needs around 25%–30%, 12–24 months around 15%–25%, and over 2 years around 10%–15%. A completed or cleared DMP can need as little as 5%–10%. Equity plays the part a deposit does on a purchase.
Will a missed payment on my DMP affect a remortgage? ›
Yes. A single unarranged overdraft fee or missed bill since entering a DMP will usually cause an automatic decline with specialist underwriters, which is why a clean record on the plan matters so much.
My current lender won't give me a product transfer because of my DMP. What can I do? ›
Your current lender is under no obligation to offer you a product transfer, and its decision has no bearing on whether specialist lenders will consider you: they assess your current circumstances, equity and credit profile. Darryl can approach specialist lenders on your behalf.
