Subprime mortgages are made available to clients that do not fit the lending criteria for high street mortgages by specialist lenders or subsidiaries of high street lenders. Their products are aimed at helping people get a mortgage who have a lower credit score or have incurred some adverse credit, such as CCJ`s, defaults or mortgage arrears. These lenders often only deal through advisers (such as First Choice Finance) and intermediaries, as most do not have branch networks or a consumer marketing facility. The products may well be at elevated rates compared to prime products and can work to slightly lower loan to values, but good competition and rate cuts are helping to keep subprime rates surprisingly competitive .
If anyone can help you when you want to know how you stand with regard to subprime mortgages and to see how close the pricing can be compared to many high street mortgage providers, then it may well be us. The approach of subprime / near prime lenders is a refreshing change from many of the lenders out there who are generally looking for people with no blemishes on their credit record and have been in long term full time employment.
The subprime mortgage market can come along with a few negative connotations and stories after the mortgage crisis of 2008. Whilst some of the observations are true, subprime mortgages helped hundreds of thousands of people in slightly more complex positions become homeowners or borrow money through a mortgage or remortgage.here clearly were some issues and thus the subprime mortgages of today are slightly different and are often referred to as near prime, targeted at those of us who are not quite perfect in the credit area sense.

Add to that the fact we will provide you with a free, confidential no obligation quotation - plus our experience in working alongside and supporting clients in the subprime arena for so long and we hope that will convince you to let us show you what we can offer, where we can help, through a free personal mortgage illustration.
As we mentioned earlier, fundamentally old style subprime mortgages no longer exist. However, rather than writing off the large market that subprime mortgages catered for, many new mortgages have been developed with extra safeguards in place to help protect borrowers . Nowadays we like to believe that all mortgages are either prime or near prime mortgages and instead we refer to mortgages / remortgages aimed at people with less than ideal credit or employment as, poor credit mortgages, self employed mortgages or adverse credit mortgages. For more information on these mortgages, head over to our page on helping people with poor credit get mortgages .
It may not be the prime stuff but that doesn`t mean it cannot still be a good deal for secured lender`s and customer`s alike. The subprime mortgage market may have taken too much risk sometimes previously but when conducted satisfactorily they were still a great route to finance. We believe that the clients that were once considered high risk, shouldn`t have to remain that way for the rest of their financial life. We all deserve second chances and a mortgage for people with bad credit or who are not quite perfect can turn things around, alternatively you may have a subprime mortgage now and would like to see if you qualify for a prime mortgage. If you think that this sounds like you, then give us a call and we can give you free, no obligation quotes on subprime and prime mortgage loans that might be available to you. You will receive no pressure from us, just the opportunity to check out the figures and maybe turn things around.
Although mortgages for people with some bad or fair credit can be a great option for many of us, certain lenders have decided to shy away from them, and rather concentrate on mortgages for those with good or fair credit profiles. Instead, if looking for a subprime mortgage you are typically left to choose between a select few of specialist lenders. Many of these specialist lenders are often very busy as a result and restrict business to certain key intermediaries. We have exclusive links to many of these lender`s, generally those offering the best rates for the new sub prime mortgages. This helps to ensure that our customers aren`t left without access to some of the best deals.
Subprime mortgage rates are generally a little higher than the mortgage rates that you might secure on the high street. This is to accommodate the perceived extra risk involved for the lender and cannot be totally avoided. What we will say, is that here at First Choice we know the mortgage products and lending criteria for numerous lender`s, inside and out. Our advisers regularly stay abreast of any new developments in both the prime and subprime mortgage market. We should know exactly where to go with your personal case and will very likely have come across you scenario before, no matter how unlikely it is, plus we may even be able to secure you a competitive prime mortgage rate, even when you thought the only products available would be subprime. This history means that even if you have previously been declined we might still be able to help.

THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE SECURING OTHER DEBTS AGAINST YOUR HOME. |
After the credit crunch reigned mortgages became increasingly difficult to find, with many British home buyers or homeowners getting rejected for mortgages and remortgages by lenders because of even a few blots on their credit profile.
Over the last twelve months, we have seen some existing lenders relax their criteria or lenders targeting the complex market with new versions of subprime mortgage deals, often referred to as near prime mortgages.
These alternative mortgage and remortgage deals are needed in the market, as according to Stuart Johnson from First Choice Finance “following the credit crunch the market was effectively closed to many people for a while, some of whom had previously had good credit profiles but because of a change in circumstances fell behind on their credit commitments”
Throughout the credit crunch many people fell behind on their mortgages or other items of credit as income became squeezed with a lack of overtime, short time or even unemployment. A lesson that has been learnt by all is the importance of affordability of loans and so lenders use detailed affordability checks, taking into consideration the borrowers income and outgoing`s, including their other credit items such as loans and credit cards, to help ensure they are able to keep up repayments. This is done alongside stress testing - by looking at affordability with higher rates than those being offered on your mortgage or remortgage.
Another consideration of importance is the loan to value for the mortgage or remortgage before the credit crunch there were many high LtV mortgages some of which even went over 100% LTV. Mortgage deals offered today by the lenders are not so high, with an absolute maximum of 95%, many mortgages are written at below 85%LTV and are still most impacted by adverse credit ratings.
It is also noteworthy that although subprime mortgages are often charged at a higher rate, so costing the borrower more, the gap is often not as wide as may be expected. Also a side benefit of these mortgages allowing some poor credit is that they can be used to help repair a borrower’s credit profile, by keeping up repayments on the mortgage they may be able to find better rate mortgages more accessible in the future, subject to market forces and the base rate at the time of course.
A recommendation for those of us with possible credit problems is to get a low cost or free copy of their credit report this can help you or a mortgage adviser see and try to repair any possible problems that may cause refusal of a mortgage application. It is also recommended not to apply to multiple lenders in a short time frame, because if your credit profile shows lots of searches this may also affect your access to mortgages and credit generally.
