Bankruptcy
Becoming bankrupt isn't a fate worse than death, but it can
feel pretty ruinous to be unable to pay one's debts. When
a bankruptcy order is made, the conditions attached to the
order are stringent and it is impossible to credit without
disclosing the fact of bankruptcy.
Even once you have been discharged as a bankrupt, after the
usual three year period (though it can be longer), you will
find it very difficult to obtain a mortgage. Regardless of
your previous mortgage repayment record, no high street mortgage
lender will consider your application. From their point of
view the risk is simply too high.
We have established which lenders in the market
are sympathetic to people who have previously been bankrupt.
