mThe addition of a new poor credit mortgage range to the deals on offer by Victoria Mortgages has been announced by the mortgage lender.
A new near-prime mortgage range is available to borrowers with adverse credit problems.
The mortgage rate for a self-certification fixed-rate mortgage is 5.45 per cent in the latest poor credit mortgage suite, the Mortgage Introducer website reports.
Self-certification mortgages are available to those who do not fit traditional mortgage lending criteria who are trying to find a mortgage . It is aimed specifically at people who are unable to prove their income.
Variable mortgage rates on the poor credit mortgage offerings start from 4.81 per cent, the chief executive officer of Victoria Mortgages, Kevin Hillgren, points out.
He explains that the new poor credit mortgage range is designed for the "fastest growing segment of the market".
Mortgage borrowers with "the odd consumer or credit card hiccough" could qualify for this poor credit mortgage, Mr Hillgren told the website.
The deals are available to both first-time buyers and current mortgage holders who have been good payers with their current loan.
A maximum loan-to-value of 90 per cent is available on this poor credit mortgage range.
