Taking mortgage with PD

Hi;
I’m young onset PD, I’m 40 years old, I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s 6 years ago.
I would like to take a mortgage to own a home, I work but I’m worried if having PD will be a problem for mortgage’s insurance. Will the mortgage providers discriminate against me for having a health condition?

I can totally understand your concerns. I’ve faced similar worries about health conditions affecting mortgage options. It’s crucial to talk to potential mortgage providers directly and maybe consult a mortgage advisor (I stopped on Mortgage Broker in Rotherham). Don’t let Parkinson’s deter you from your homeownership dreams.
