How to Get a Mortgage With Active or Satisfied CCJs
Having a County Court Judgment (CCJ) on your credit file doesn't mean homeownership is out of reach. Whether your CCJ is active, partially paid, or fully satisfied, specialist lenders still offer mortgage options.
Mortgages With CCJs – What You Need to Know
- Active CCJs Don't Mean Automatic Rejection – Many specialist lenders will still consider applications with unpaid CCJs, depending on age, value, and circumstances.
- Satisfied CCJs Improve Lender Confidence – Once a CCJ is settled, more lenders become available and interest rates may improve.
- The Right Structure Matters More Than Your Past – Deposit size, income stability, and lender selection often matter more than the CCJ itself.

CCJs remain on your credit file for six years, but their impact reduces over time.
