Are there any Lenders who will consider a mortgage after IVA. We are with Natwest now and looking to move, the IVA finished in February.
If I go online I get a yes to a decision in principle but I suspect once the iva question is asked the decision will change.
I found Natwest lending criteria on line which states they will not lend to anyone subject to an IVA in the past 6 years, not sure if this means six years from it starting or from it finishing.
Any advice would be very welcome.

I would suggest a whole of market broker with experience in adverse credit applications, as lenders policies do vary --- some will accept you as soon as your credit record clears, some three or even six years after completion and sone never again ! But, as usual the market is ever changing, so an expert in this field can be worth their weight in gold.

We have two brokers who regularly post here who it would be worth chatting to, both of whom have assisted many an ex IVA'er -- Ryan and Shaun. Their contact details can be gleaned from their profile pages at:

Ryan: memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=18488

Shaun: memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=22837
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Thanks, I think you are probably correct, spoke to someone today who said they didn't think getting it approved with a lender would be a problem but they wanted £1995 paid once an offer had been made, this seems a bit expensive, anyone know what the going rate is?

Thanks for the reply

I am currently going through a remortgage with Ryan and his team - comes highly recommended and will be able to advise you fully. Everyone's circumstances are so different.

I think you go into your profile and change it there. Not 100% as it's been a while since I've done that!
