Your home may be repossessed, if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other loan secured on it.
Lender will determine the maximum loan amount based on your individual circumstances and credit scoring. Whilst, the specific lending criteria will vary between lenders, the core information required is consistent. Below is a list of typical information you may be asked to provide:
Most employed applicants can prove their income via their payslips and P60, issued at the end of each tax year. Lenders will usually request copies of these items and verify your employment status and income with your employer direct. Full status means that you are able to evidence your income (and have a good credit history).
If you are employed and are able to evidence your income in the accepted way but have additional income, such as irregular overtime or bonus, contract or seasonal work, you may be able to apply for Self Certification. Self Certification means that you are able to declare your income without having to provide substantial evidence. Our Blue Pebble advisors act responsibly and will ensure that you can afford to repay your new mortgage.
If you are self-employed most lenders will contact your accountant to verify your income over the last three years income. If you are unable to provide evidence of three years income, you may wish to consider a self-certification mortgage.
Lenders will assess your credit rating based on a how you manage your accounts and credit arrangements. This information is available via Credit Reference Agencies.
If your credit score is good, this indicates that you are able to repay the loan. If your credit rating does not meet the lender's criteria, they will be unlikely to grant a loan.
Our Blue Pebble Mortgage advisers can source the lenders that specialise in lending to individuals with adverse credit. Contact us for further details or refer to our Useful Links for additional information relating to Credit Reference Agencies.
Whether you are a First time buyer, moving house, or looking to purchase an investment property, a Mortgage Promise can help you. A Mortgage Promise is an offer of lending for the purposes of a mortgage. The lender will offer a maximum lending amount based on your income and credit history.
All Mortgage Promises are subject to a valuation on the property and verification of the information you have provided. They can provide a good indication of the property price range you can afford, and demonstrate to estate agents or sellers that you are serious about buying.
