Mortgages For Contractors - Yes!

twitter icon

Getting a mortgage as a contractor can be a bit more complex—but it’s far from impossible. The challenge is that income isn’t always straightforward, so lenders assess things differently. Some will look at day rates, contract length, and industry experience rather than traditional payslips or accounts.

This is where experience matters. An experienced broker knows which lenders understand contractor income and how to present your case in a way that works.

Mortgages are all about criteria. Speaking to someone who understands how to package and present your case is vital. Ideally, you should have that conversation before you’re ready—so you can prepare properly and move with confidence when the time comes.
