Why some lenders say no

Most high-street lenders auto-decline on any CCJ inside 3-6 years.
Unsatisfied CCJs are almost always declined; satisfied ones have more options.
Total count and value matter — multiple or large CCJs narrow the pool further.

Frequently asked questions

Does a satisfied CCJ count differently than unsatisfied?

Yes. Satisfied CCJs (paid off) have many more lenders than unsatisfied. Most lenders insist on satisfaction as a starting point, then apply their own age-months rule on top.

Does it matter how much the CCJ was for?

Yes. Some lenders have a £ threshold (e.g. CCJs under £500 disregarded). Others count every CCJ regardless of amount. Larger CCJs usually need a longer 'clean since' period.

Will I pay a higher rate?

Usually. Adverse credit products typically sit 0.5-1.5% above standard rates. The rate premium varies by how recent, how many, and whether satisfied.

Should I use a mortgage broker?

For adverse-credit cases, yes — specialist brokers know which lenders will actually say yes, reducing wasted credit searches on your file.
