Inspired partly by this thread:https://www.askaboutmoney.com/threa...to-central-bank-rules-due-to-covid-19.216706/ , suggesting rules are tightening:
I would like to switch my mortgage to AIB from EBS but would be a non-standard applicant. Mortgage was split in 2016. Amount outstanding around €300k, house value approx €700k now. Circumstances have improved hugely since then. Household income now at €160k. Would like to start paying off both active and warehoused parts but EBS rate is considerably higher. Perfect payment history on mortgage since split.
Did an accelerated PIA to deal with residual debt (CC and Term loan to cover OD on failed biz) which will show two items on ICB / CCR, last of which will not be removed til 2022. Both will show settled, nothing owing since 2017.
Both of us have main bank accounts with AIB, spotless history going back at least 3 years. Living very frugally. No bounced DDs. Both jobs are pretty safe.
I had planned to book an appt with an AIB mortgage advisor and share all documents showing all debts dealt with, good payment history and hope the direct approach to our own bank might encourage them to look at us as a safe switch. However, face to face not now possible and I don't know if the current clampdown may make this switch application less likely or whether it's only going to get tighter in terms of underwriting. So apply now or wait?
Should also mention that have both built up positive credit rating with CU over past 30 months with savings initially and then small into larger loans (€500 up to €3000). So credit history in last 3 years is positive with loans paid in full / closed ahead of time.
Any suggestions? Any recommendations for a broker who would be useful in presenting the case to AIB?
Thanks
