£680,000 mortgage for newly qualified professional buying family home
Trinity Financial recently helped a newly qualified professional and his partner to secure an income stretch mortgage.
The first applicant qualified as a lawyer two years ago and the second applicant was a teacher.
They had found a house to buy and were keen to secure a mortgage at just over five-times their joint salaries. They had a 10% deposit.
After speaking to their bank, they were told they would need to have a 15% deposit.
Solution
Many of the lenders do not provide higher loan-to-value mortgages to borrowers if they have a 10% deposit.
Trinity’s broker approached a lender specifically offering high-income multiples to newly qualified professionals earning more than £40,000 each year.
The lender stated the mortgage would need to be taken on a five-year fixed rate basis enabling it to provide a more generous stress test and larger loans.
