£500,000 mortgage for city lawyer and self-employed partner buying in West Hampstead
Case details
We were approached by a city lawyer and his self-employed partner looking to borrow £500,000 to purchase their first property.
As the self-employed partner had recently started a company and did not have one year’s accounts, they wanted a lender to offer funds based on one salary.
As there was a lot of competition from other buyers, they were also keen to get a fast decision in principle agreed in order to proceed quickly.
Solution:
Without sufficient accounts it was not possible to use the self-employed income, so we arranged a five times salary mortgage using the lawyers income.
We approached a mortgage lender with fast turnaround times and impressive rates to ensure the clients met their tight completion deadlines.
In order to make sure the capital repayment was affordable the mortgage was arranged over a 33-year term, without early repayment charges so overpayments can be made at any time.
