This depends on your income, outgoings and credit history. Most lenders offer 4–5x your annual income. Use our Affordability Calculator for an estimate, or speak to an adviser for a precise figure.
Most purchase mortgages need a deposit — typically 5–15% of the property value. Some schemes and specialist products may allow lower deposits. Your adviser will explain your options.
From application to completion typically takes 8–12 weeks, depending on valuation, legal work and your lender. Remortgages can sometimes be faster. We'll keep you updated throughout.
We'll discuss your credit history early on and may run a soft check so we can recommend suitable lenders. Soft checks don't affect your credit score. Hard checks happen when you apply to a lender.
Often yes, but early repayment charges may apply if you're still in a fixed or discounted period. We'll calculate whether switching still saves you money after any fees.
Many lenders accept self-employed applicants with accounts, SA302s or accountant certificates. We'll match you with lenders who understand your income type.
