£950,000 mortgage for IT contractors with 15% deposit
Trinity Financial recently arranged a £950,000 mortgage for two IT Contractors.
They had a history of contracting in the IT sector and between them earned just over £1,000 per day.
They had sold their property and wanted to secure a large mortgage to purchase a bigger home.
To ensure they had longer-term payment security they were looking for a competitively priced five-year fix rate and had a 15% deposit.
Solution
Trinity’s broker approached a large bank offering some of the lowest five-year fixed rates across the market.
The mortgage was agreed in principle over the telephone subject to the clients providing a 12-month history of work, bank statements and sufficient identification.
The lender had one of the better contactor policies in the market and worked out the maximum loan size using the day rate x five x 48 months. It could also use up to five-times joint incomes.
