Bad Credit Home Loans
When you have paid or unpaid defaults or judgments on your credit file or mortgage arrears it is difficult to get you approved or refinanced by the Major Banks. When you apply for credit, the lender will, after assessing your savings history, your income and your debts – order a credit check on you. This involves contacting one or more of Australia’s credit reporting agencies, to order a credit report from your credit file.

Some funders that have delegated authority with mortgage insurers may accept paid defaults up to 80% of property value as long as they have not been recent and you can provide a reasonable explanation.
We have many of these lenders on our panel and each case needs to be analysed to find the best and lowest rate option for you with the easiest exit strategy for you to refinance to a lower rate lender when your credit report is clear. All these Funders require a detailed account of how and when the impairments occurred; as well as an explanation on how and why the event is no longer an ongoing concern with little likelihood of reoccurrence.

It is important that you are proactive as the longer you leave it the more bank fees, default interest rate, lawyer fees and real estate fees will eat into your equity that you have in your home. If you can’t make the repayments on your home loan due to ongoing income restrictions it then may be better to sell your home rather than refinance and just end up in the same situation again.
It can be stressful if you find yourself unable to meet your mortgage repayments and you’re in danger defaulting. But you’re not the first person to face difficulties, and there is almost always a solution. You just need to talk to the right people at the first sign of difficulty.
Firstly Talk to your lender
You probably won’t want to talk about your mortgage situation. But the problem won’t solve itself and avoiding matters won’t help. Remember: your lender doesn’t want to foreclose your loan – it’s no fun for them either. So call and let them know what’s happening.
