Versatility case study: Right to Buy with multiple income sources and credit blips

Here at The Mansfield, we take a personal and common sense approach to borrowers’ circumstances to offer a little Versatility for complex cases. In this case study, we helped a family with a Right to Buy purchase when there were multiple income sources and historic adverse credit.

The property itself was a mid-terraced house in London. The open-market property value was £440k, however the Right to Buy purchase price was actually £327,700.

The applicants were a married couple with one child and were looking to borrow the full amount of the Right to Buy purchase price over a 20 year term.

The main applicant was self-employed with income from a shop, a partnership with brothers and background commercial Buy to Lets.

The main applicant also had a County Court Judgement (CCJ) hat had been satisfied around 10 months prior to application. The second applicant was a nursey worker who had some minor defaults dating back over a year ago.

We were able to help this family secure their mortgage on our Versatility range, considering the Right to Buy at 100% of the purchase price, the self-employed multiple income sources and the historic adverse credit.
