Mortgage Rescue

Worried about your mortgage? Help is available

Getting advice is an important step in helping you sort out your money worries and help you keep your home. As part of a range of measures to help people who may have recently lost their job or who are simply struggling to pay their bills, the Government has recently introduced a number of schemes and changes to existing benefits which may help you keep your home.

We do understand that many people need help in accessing these schemes; some have only recently been introduced and people need the right advice in order to understand what help they may be entitled to.

Homeowners Mortgage Support

Homeowners Mortgage Support enables you to postpone part of your interest payment for up to two years. The money postponed is added onto the remaining balance of your mortgage, to be paid back when your situation improves. This scheme is for people experiencing a short-term drop in income, perhaps due to a reduction in hours. Get more information on CLG Mortgage leaflet 756kb or for answers to some Frequently asked questions.33kb

Further information about help that is available

The Government has produced an NHAS Information leaflet 294kb for those people who are worried about their mortgage. It will give you lots more helpful information on some of the schemes already discussed and who else you can contact for advice.Useful websites http://www.direct.gov.uk/http://www.nationaldebtline.co.uk/http://www.realhelpnow.gov.uk/
