Miss L avoided repossession!

Miss L was being threatened with repossession by a company she had taken out a secured loan with. She had been out of work for a short period and had fallen behind with her loan repayments. When she came to us she had only days left until the court hearing and was very concerned about losing her flat and having nowhere to live. We were able to buy Miss L’s property for cash before the day of the court hearing, avoiding the eviction. All her debt was cleared, and she was finally able to buy the things she needed but had been unable to afford. Miss L chose to use our rent offsetting service allowing her time to find a new job and get back on her feet before starting monthly rental payments.

This is what Miss L had to say:

“I was very happy with your service and the way everything was dealt with with great speed.

I was so pleased that I came to you and if anyone else was in the same situation be it my friends I would highly recommend you to them as I found you very helpful and at least I can now still stay in my home and still be near my friends. I must tell you I received two letters from Blemain Finance trying to get me to take out another loan with them - I think they were trying to get me into debt with them again which I wasn't very happy about, having had sleepless nights over the whole thing.

I am really pleased at how things turned out, and that everything was dealt with with only days left until I would've had to go to court. Thank you once again and also pass my thanks onto Thomas as well, and also for letting me ring you at home over the weekend.”

And in a Christmas card to You Stay:

“Thank you for all you did for me. If it hadn’t been for you I don’t know where I’d be living now, probably in a cardboard box.”

Ms C improved the outlook for her retirement…

Ms C was getting near retirement age and the bank was charging her a lot in fees and interest because of this. Although she was working, she was having difficulty affording her monthly payments as they were nearly twice what a regular mortgage would be. We were able to give Ms C 3 Options for Selling and Renting Back, and she was able to choose a rent she could afford and a purchase price she was happy with. Her rent is now less than half what her previous mortgage payments were and she has been able to stay in her home, which is just around the corner from her daughter, indefinitely. Ms C also received a significant sum of money from the sale which she has set aside to enjoy when she retires.

Ms C had this to say:

“I was happy with the service you provided in the purchase of my property and felt that it was a very personalised service, being able to contact you and Shelley easily and meeting you both to discuss details face to face rather than over the phone. You answered all my questions and understood that it was quite a tough time for me. Being able to rent back my property is great as I really didn't want to move and it was the solution to my problem. “
