Overcoming Adverse Credit: How The Mortgage Lady UK Turned a Customer's Dream into Reality

The Challenge: Navigating the Hurdles of Adverse Credit

Buying your first home is a dream for many—but for first-time buyers with adverse credit, it can feel more like a nightmare. Our client, John, found himself in that exact situation. His credit report included missed payments, defaults, and CCJs, and despite a 5% deposit, several banks and brokers turned him away.

John was ready to give up—until he found us.

Unlike some brokers tied to specific lenders, we offer whole-of-market mortgage advice, which means we could explore a wide range of specialist lenders.
