I owe about \u00a396,000 on the mortgage but also have another secured loan of \u00a338,000 (which is what it would cost to repay it so includes early redemption fees and so on). The house is valued at about \u00a3165,000, so I do have some equity in it. However, my real problem is that I\u2019m also on a debt management plan of about \u00a313,000, which has been going for less than a year. If I sold my house and paid off everything, I would have \u00a318,000 to put towards a bigger house. But my question is: would I be able to get the bigger mortgage that I would need?Is there any hope?
