Can I get a no deposit mortgage?
If your mortgage application is rejected, there are a number of things you can do to improve your chances of being approved the next time. Don't rush to another lender, as each application may show up on your credit file.
Any payday loans you've had in the last six years will show up on your record, even if you've paid them off on time. It could still count against you, as lenders might think you won't be able to afford the financial responsibility of having a mortgage.
Lenders are not perfect. Many of them enter your application data into a computer, so it is possible that the mortgage was not granted due to an error in your credit file. A lender is unlikely to give you a specific reason for failing a credit application, other than it being related to your credit file.
Lenders have different underwriting criteria and take a number of factors into account when evaluating your mortgage application. They can be based on a combination of age, income, employment status, loan-to-value ratio, and property location.
Can I get a mortgage on my own?
The amortization period is the time it takes to pay off the entire mortgage, including interest. This period can be up to 25 years if the mortgage is insured against default, and up to 30 years if it is not. For a new mortgage, it is usually 25 years.
The principal of the mortgage is the amount of money that is borrowed from the lender. If a mortgage is for $250.000, the principal of the mortgage is $250.000. The principal, along with interest, is paid back to the lender over time through mortgage payments.
Mortgage default insurance protects the lender if you are unable to repay the mortgage loan. You need this insurance if you have a high-ratio mortgage, and it is usually added to the principal of your mortgage. A mortgage is high-ratio when the down payment is less than 20% of the value of the property.
The results are based on the information you provide, on the estimates and assumptions on which the preloaded amounts are based and on the interest rates that, for calculation purposes, are assumed to remain constant throughout the term. Actual rates may vary and will affect the amount you can borrow.

A mortgage is a loan from a bank or mortgage lender to help finance the purchase of a home without having to pay the full price of the home up front. Given the high costs of buying a home, almost all home buyers need long-term financing in order to purchase a home. The property itself serves as collateral, providing security to the lender in case the borrower is unable to repay the loan.
A mortgage payment is usually monthly. It includes a portion of principal (the full amount of money borrowed) and interest (the price you pay to borrow money from the lender), and often property taxes, homeowner's insurance, and private mortgage insurance.

There are several financial institutions that offer loans to people who buy a property, for example, mortgage companies and banks. You will need to find out if you can take out a loan and, if so, what the amount is (for more information on mortgages, see the Mortgages section).
Some mortgage companies provide buyers with a certificate stating that the loan will be available as long as the property is satisfactory. You can get this certificate before you start looking for a home. Real estate companies claim that this certificate can help you get the seller to accept your offer.
You will have to pay a deposit at the time of the exchange of contracts, a few weeks before the purchase is completed and the money is received from the mortgage lender. The deposit is usually 10% of the purchase price of the home, but can vary.
When you find a home, you should arrange a viewing to make sure it is what you need and to get an idea of whether you will have to spend additional money on the home, for example for repairs or decoration. It is common for a potential buyer to visit a property two or three times before deciding to make an offer.
