I have heard that when you are young and single it can be difficult to get a loan for a Mortgage. Probably because we haven't lived long enough to establish great credit and haven't been able to purchase much to prove our credibility. Women have been viewed as far too high a risk for lenders to even consider, particularly if there has been a background of poor credit history.
Mortgage lenders have begun to realize that often bad debts were caused by circumstances or life events, such as divorce or illness. As a result of these bad credit incidences, Adverse Credit mortgages and a whole range of services are now currently available to prospective borrowers, in spite of any history of a poor financial background. I think it is great to see that there are some understanding companies out there that care about people and their futures.
