Petition Action

Change the mortgage structure from a credit rating to payment of rent history

Petition Details

Please sign to change the way in which mortgages are given. You currently need a good credit rating and good earnings for a mortgage. Yet theres no limit on rent demands as opposed to earnings.

Additional Information

Many of us in privately rented accommodation that pay our 'high' rent demands on time every month in full are paying a lot more to a lot of people with a mortgage, which therefore makes it impossible to save for a deposit. Why not change the way you are assessed for a mortgage on how good a payer you have been with your rent over a period of time?
