Self Employed Mortgages
There are over 3 million currently self-employed people in the UK,
accounting for almost 11% of the total working population and making
an estimated £93bn contribution to the UK economy each year. (Source
~ national STATISTICS)
There are also many others who are either on short term contracts
such as Consultants, Engineers, Agency Staff, Teaching Support
Staff, etc. who are on irregular incomes and paid by way of
contracted time schemes or with bonuses and commissions.
Therefore, a great majority of the Self Employed who are seeking a
mortgage can meet with many barriers and, as a result, feel a
growing frustration at having been turned down through outdated
lending practices.
A number of lenders are now actively seeking to attract Self
Employed borrowers and will assess income in a more sympathetic
manner, realising that 'one size does not fit all'.
Mortgages where income can be 'self certified' or ‘fast tracked’ may
benefit the Self Employed or contracted person and has considerably
helped to solve the problem of rejection when applying for a
mortgage.
