Can you get a Mortgage on an Unmortgageable Property?

Yes, it may be possible to get a mortgage on a property in Totton that has been described as unmortgageable.

The finance available will depend on why the property has been refused by mainstream lenders. Specialist lenders often have more flexible criteria for unusual construction, structural defects, short leases and properties requiring renovation.

Where a standard mortgage is not currently possible, alternative property finance may provide funding until the problem is resolved. You may then be able to refinance the property onto a conventional mortgage.

Contact us with details of the property and we can assess the options available.

Mortgages for Properties with Structural Problems

We can help find finance for properties in Hampshire with structural defects where mainstream mortgage lenders are unwilling to lend.

Problems such as subsidence, structural movement, significant cracking and other defects can affect a property's mortgageability because lenders need suitable security for the loan.

Depending on the issue, a lender may require a structural survey, valuation or specialist report before considering the application.

If you have been refused a mortgage because of structural problems, get in touch to discuss specialist finance options.

Mortgages for Non-Standard Construction Properties

We arrange mortgages and property finance in Totton for non-standard construction properties.

This can include properties built using:

  • Timber frames
  • Steel frames
  • Concrete panels
  • Prefabricated systems
  • Other non-traditional construction methods

Many mainstream lenders restrict the construction types they accept. Specialist lenders may consider a wider range of properties based on the construction method, condition, valuation and individual circumstances.

Contact us if you are buying or refinancing a non-standard construction property.

Mortgages for Properties with a Short Lease

We can help arrange mortgages for properties in SO40 3 with short leases where standard lenders may be unwilling to provide finance.

Mortgage lenders set their own minimum lease requirements. The remaining lease length, property value and plans for extending the lease can all affect which lenders are available.

If you are struggling to mortgage or remortgage a short-lease property, contact us to discuss your options.

Mortgages for Properties Above Shops and Commercial Premises

We can help secure mortgages for flats and residential properties above shops, restaurants, offices and other commercial premises in Totton.

Mainstream lenders can be cautious about these properties because the commercial premises may affect noise, access, resale demand or the property's overall value.

Specialist lenders may take a more flexible approach depending on the property, its location and the type of commercial premises below.

Get in touch if you need a mortgage for a property above commercial premises.

Finance for Properties Without a Kitchen or Bathroom

We can help arrange finance for properties without a functioning kitchen, bathroom or other essential facilities.

Mainstream lenders in Totton may consider these properties uninhabitable and therefore unsuitable for a conventional residential mortgage.

Alternative property finance can potentially be used to purchase the property and complete the required work. Once the property reaches a mortgageable condition, you may be able to refinance onto a standard mortgage.

Contact us to discuss finance for an uninhabitable or renovation property.

Finance for Properties Requiring Renovation

We arrange finance for properties requiring refurbishment or major renovation before they can meet standard mortgage lending criteria.

The most suitable option will depend on the property's current condition, purchase price, required work, renovation costs and your plans once the project is complete.

We can assess your requirements and identify lenders that consider properties requiring improvement.

Enquire now if you need finance to purchase or refinance a property requiring renovation in Hampshire.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an Unmortgageable Property Actually Unmortgageable?

Not necessarily. A property may be described as unmortgageable because it does not meet the criteria of a particular lender or group of mainstream lenders.

Specialist lenders may use different criteria and consider properties that have previously been refused.

Can I get a Mortgage After Another Lender has Declined the Property?

Yes, another lender may consider the property because mortgage lending criteria vary between providers.

We can review why the previous application was declined and look for lenders whose criteria are better suited to the property.

Can I Buy an Unmortgageable Property at Auction?

Yes, finance may be available for an unmortgageable property purchased at auction.

Auction purchases usually have strict completion deadlines, so it is important to consider the finance required before bidding.

Contact us if you are considering buying a difficult-to-mortgage property at auction.

Can I Remortgage an Unmortgageable Property?

Yes, specialist remortgage options may be available for properties that mainstream lenders will not accept.

The options depend on the property's condition, construction, value and the reason it is considered difficult to mortgage.

Can an Unmortgageable Property Become Mortgageable?

Yes. Some properties can become suitable for conventional mortgage lending once the issue preventing a standard mortgage has been resolved.

This could involve completing structural repairs, installing a kitchen or bathroom, extending a lease or completing renovation work.

Can you Guarantee Mortgage Approval?

No. Mortgage approval depends on the property, applicant, valuation, affordability and individual lender criteria.

We can assess your circumstances and identify suitable lenders, but approval cannot be guaranteed.

"Our lease had dropped to 62 years and we were told it was basically unmortgageable. They arranged both the mortgage and helped coordinate the lease extension - something no other broker offered to do."
