People who are self-employed often have different obstacles to overcome when applying for a mortgage; however, this doesn’t mean they are less likely to be approved. We have helped self-employed borrowers with various circumstances find the right mortgage for them.
Despite the myth, there is in fact no such thing as a “self-employed mortgage” specifically created for people who work for themselves. People who are self-employed apply for the same types of mortgages as everyone else, with the only difference being how they prove their income.
Proving Self Employed Income
- Between 2-4 years of business accounts
- Personal tax returns
- Previous 12 months contracts
It’s important to note that it will depend on whether you are a sole trader, company director or contractor / freelancer in regards to exactly what paperwork will be required.
