Yes – we would love to help. Having a poor credit rating will not prevent you finding a property to rent or being granted a tenancy. Before granting a tenancy we consider many factors (not just credit ratings) and different landlords will have different criteria.
We never accept an application for a tenancy in the following situations:
- Total sum of Active CCJs over the value of £4,000 within the last 3 years
- Total sum of Satisfied CCJs over the value of £4,000 within the last 3 years
IVAs and bankruptcies are usually acceptable with payment of more rent in advance.
Finally, before applying for a tenancy we recommend you check your credit reports for errors or omissions to minimise the risk of rejection.
