A hugely informative quarterly meeting, graciously hosted by .bank๐ŸŸก.A big thank you to Stephen Wright for having us!

Valuable economic updates on the current landscape, along with insight into the upcoming Budget and what 2027 may have in store. ๐Ÿ‘

Superb product updates and delivery from Chelsea Pordage .bank and Mark Stephenson , keeping us up to speed with the opportunities ahead.

Followed by an afternoon of team building, defining โ€œYour Perfect Repeatable Dayโ€ with โ€” taking time to reflect on how we can work smarter, collaborate better and continue to deliver effectively.

And, of course, it wouldnโ€™t be a team day without a few sundowners to round things off! ๐Ÿฅ‚โ˜€๏ธ

Great insights, great teamwork and a clear focus on whatโ€™s next. ๐Ÿค

Itโ€™s definitely possible, though the pool of lenders is a bit smaller. Many standard lenders prefer you to own your own home first, but some are perfectly happy to consider first-time buyers with a CCJ in the background.

Lenders look at a ยฃ200 parking ticket very differently than a massive unpaid bill, so the exact details matter! ๐Ÿ โœจ

It entirely depends on the criteria of both lenders. Some first charge lenders explicitly state that no one can sit behind them, while some second charge lenders insist on formal permission.

However, there are also 'equitable charges' where formal consent isnโ€™t required at all! ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ“Š

Your borrowing power depends on when the CCJ was registered, how much it was for, and when it was satisfied.

Adverse-friendly lenders might restrict you from absolute maximum income multiples, but many still offer great, competitive loan sizes. ๐Ÿ“Š๐Ÿ’ฐ

Lenders focus heavily on the property itself rather than just the borrower. You can potentially secure up to 80% net of the funds required to purchase.

The physical property valuation is the ultimate key to deciding your maximum loan size. ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ๐Ÿ”Ž
