Overcoming the mortgage hurdles faced by irregular earners and the self-employed

Navigating the mortgage landscape as a self-employed individual, limited company owner, or irregular earner can often seem daunting.

A significant portion of the UK workforce—approximately 15%—is self-employed, and many supplement their income with secondary businesses or buy-to-let properties.

Recent studies indicate that over half of self-employed individuals feel their chances of buying or renovating a property are hindered by the complexities of securing a mortgage.

How We Can Assist You
Our award winning mortgage brokers have cultivated strong relationships with specialist lenders who understand the nuances of non-traditional earnings:

Fixed Term Contractors and New Freelancers: If you’ve recently become self-employed or are working on a fixed-term contract, we can connect you with lenders who are willing to consider less than two years of accounts.

Zero-Hour Contracts: For those on zero-hour contracts, we identify lenders who use more flexible criteria to assess income stability.

Limited Company Directors: We assist directors who take a basic salary plus dividends, or those looking to borrow based on retained company profits rather than just drawn salary and dividends.

Day Rate Contractors: For contractors earning a day rate, we have solutions that calculate borrowing potential based on your actual day rate, which can often be more favourable than the traditional salary and dividend assessment.
