The Challenge
Our client had sold his previous property a few years earlier and was renting while waiting to find his ideal home in a specific area with good schools.
He was a Ltd Company Director of two companies, with income coming into both businesses and drawings taken irregularly.
This created a complex financial picture that would normally cause issues when applying for a mortgage with mainstream lenders.
Our Approach
We took a long-term, proactive approach:
- Maintained regular contact over a two-year period, keeping the client informed of lender criteria and market changes
- Worked with the client and his accountant to organise and simplify accounts, ensuring clear income reporting
- Prepared the client for a mortgage application, making sure everything met lender requirements in advance
The Solution
When the client finally found his ideal property, we were able to approach a mainstream lender confidently, with accounts fully organised.
The result was a smooth mortgage approval for £640,000 at 85% LTV, without any complications.
Why It Matters
Planning ahead and preparing accounts carefully can make a huge difference for self-employed borrowers.
With the right guidance, even complex financial situations can be presented clearly to lenders, enabling access to competitive mortgage terms.
