Halifax confirms income verification requirements for Locum Doctors
Halifax for Intermediaries has confirmed the income verification requirements for Locum Doctors looking for a mortgage.
A Locum Doctor will be treated as employed by Halifax if the company they work for pays their tax and they have a minimum of six months continuous employment as a doctor. The bank will want to see the latest three months payslips as evidence of their income.
Halifax will treat a customer as self-employed where they pay their own tax or have set up a limited company and employ other individuals; the bank's standard self-employed income verification requirements will apply so applicants will need up to two years accounts.
Aaron Strutt, product director at Trinity Financial, says: "If you are looking for a mortgage Halifax has some great rates and some really flexible lending criteria."
"The lenders want to know that locum doctors have a stable and regular income and they want evidence. More of the banks and building societies have started to target professionals like doctors and some of them can lend up to 5.5 times salary."
