Applying for a mortage
Tue, 10/08/2010 - 12:28
I had treatment for Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2001 when I was 22 years old. I have remained free of cancer. I am now 32 years of age and looking at buying my first home. I was interested to hear other people's experiences of applying for mortages. Has anyone experienced any difficulties applying for home loans? Has anyone found any resources that have been helpful? The bank manager raised the topic of life insurance and income protection insurance. I don't feel very optimistic about that. Beginning to think that it might be worth talking to a financial planner before applying for any loans. Interested to hear other people's experiences.

Hi Flight
Hodgkins Lymphoma, ten years free of disease! The matter shouldn't even be raised. Have a talk to the Cancer Council about the statistics and then armed with that go and talk to a financial planner. Good luck
