My partner and I are using a Mortgage Broker at the moment to see what we can get. She does not have a great deal of self-employment history and I have a default on my account from an Argos card (Not my fault ) from years back. One thing we were not aware of is that none of these credit score agencies has any idea how much money you earn. If you have a good income you may be able to overcome a less than desirable credit score. You may not get the absolute best deal but it will almost certainly beat renting.
