Remove old addresses/old accounts from your file

If you have an account for, say, a mobile phone you don't use any more and it's linked to an old address, this can ruin a mortgage application due to ID checks.

You must make sure old accounts are closed or have an up-to-date address.

95% mortgage

As they sound, 95% mortgages involve a lender granting you a loan equal to 95% of the full purchase price of a home to enable you to buy it. You might look at these if you are looking to buy a property but do not have sufficient savings for a standard-sized deposit of 10% of the asking price.

The downside is that you have to take out a larger mortgage, which is likely to be more expensive in terms of interest rate levied on the loan. Additionally, house prices need only fall 6% for you to find yourself in negative equity.


Bermondsey is a district in Southwark Borough in south London, around 3 miles east south-east of the capital’s centre. It is a vibrant area with a great local market called The Blue. Landmarks include the Kagyu Samye Dzong Tibetan Buddhist Centre and the Mandela Way T-34 tank.
