Fixed or tracker - it's one of the most common questions we get asked right now, and the honest answer is: it depends.

With the Bank of England base rate still a topic of much discussion, a lot of borrowers are weighing up whether to lock in a fixed rate or take a chance on a tracker that moves with the market.

Here's a quick breakdown:
Fixed rate - your interest rate stays the same for the length of your deal, giving you certainty over your monthly payments regardless of what happens to the base rate. Great if you value stability and want to budget with confidence.

Tracker rate - your rate moves in line with the Bank of England base rate, usually at a set percentage above it. If rates fall, your payments fall too - but if they rise, so do your costs.

Right now, with rate cuts anticipated but not guaranteed, the decision really comes down to your appetite for risk, your financial situation, and how long you want to fix for.

There's no single right answer - but there is a right answer for you. That's what we're here to help you find.

Think carefully before securing other debts against your property. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other debt secured on it.

Having bad credit doesn't automatically mean you can't get a mortgage - it just means you need the right broker on your side.

Bad credit mortgages, sometimes called adverse credit mortgages, are specifically designed for people who've experienced financial difficulties in the past — whether that's missed payments, defaults, CCJs, or even bankruptcy. Lenders in this space assess your situation individually rather than just running a credit check and saying no.

What they'll typically look at:
How long ago the credit issues occurred - recent problems carry more weight than older ones

Your deposit size - a larger deposit can significantly improve your options

Your income and affordability - demonstrating you can comfortably manage repayments matters

Yes, rates may be slightly higher to begin with. But managing a mortgage responsibly is one of the most effective ways to rebuild your credit profile over time - and as your score improves, remortgaging onto a better deal becomes a very real possibility.

If you're based in Hornchurch or the surrounding Essex area and you've been told no elsewhere, come and talk to us. We've helped plenty of people in exactly this situation, and we may be able to help you too.
