Self-Employed Mortgage with One Years Accounts
If you are self-employed, it may seem daunting beginning the search to obtain a mortgage, but there is good news – it isn’t impossible. Lenders tend to prefer employed borrowers who are under the PAYE system as it makes reviewing their finances easier.
Self-employed workers will need to prove their income which can be a longer process due to having to file taxes and accounts yourself or through a qualified accountant. There are specialist lenders out there who specifically cater towards self-employed applicants too.
Can I get a Mortgage if I Have One Years of Accounts?
It is best to have been trading for three years to provide three years’ worth of finalised accounts to a lender when applying for a mortgage. That being said, there are options if you have only been trading for a year and a handful of options available to you if it has only been nine months.
It is important to have been trading for at least a year so you can provide documents from the tax year. There are specialist lenders out there that will consider you if you haven’t completed a year’s worth of trading, yet as you can imagine the market is limited.
How do I Prove my Income with One Years of Accounts?
How Much Can I Borrow?
Self-employed applicants can commonly borrow the same amount as an employed applicant if you have a good credit score. This is usually around five times your annual income. If you can prove that you are on a higher income, lenders may allow you to borrow more.
If you have not been trading for a year yet, you can ask the lender to consider an income projection. This is where you estimate a year’s income based on the months you’ve been actively trading.
It is important to understand that lenders will vary in what criteria you will need to fill to be accepted onto a mortgage. It is important to look around at different lenders as there will be one suited for your needs. It is advisable to seek mortgage advice from an expert such as a Mortgage Broker to ensure you are making the right choice.
