Case Study
Remortgage With 1 Previous Missed Mortgage Payment
Client Profile

- Location: North East of England
- Property Type: Freehold Semi-D
- Goal: Remortgaging to facilitate the purchase of a new property.
- Loan-to-Value (LTV) for new property: 65%
The Challenge
Missed Mortgage Payment History
One missed mortgage payment with their existing lender within the last 12 months.
Employment Status
One borrower had only started working for three months in an new full-time role and was paid weekly. So, they lacked the standard history of payslips usually required to satisfy income verification.
The Solution
Recognizing that a standard application would fail, we undertook a meticulous whole-of-market deep-dive that went far beyond a simple search. We manually analyzed the criteria of dozens of providers and leveraged our direct relationships with specialist niche lenders. The goal was to find a lender whose underwriting criteria were flexible enough to accept a recent missed mortgage payment and recognize the potential of the borrower’s new employment.
Finally, we managed to secured a 2-year fixed-rate mortgage over a 35-year term, which is an increase from the previous 19 years terms, for their new home.
