Mr Khan is a successful IT contractor who wanted to upscale his home in Hertfordshire for a growing family.
He needed to find the right mortgage but he encountered a problem. All the lenders he approached wanted to base their mortgage offers on his Limited company’s business accounts. This would have severely reduced Mr Khan’s options.
The problem for IT contractors finding the right mortgage
Many self-employed contractors face the same problem; their Limited Company accounts are handled very tax efficiently, which significantly reduces their useable income for mortgage lending purposes on paper but doesn’t realistically reflect their ability to service loan repayments over the period of a mortgage.
So, Mr Khan came to Clayton-Welch Associates for our specialist mortgage brokering services in the hope of finding a lender who would be more sympathetic to his circumstances and enable him to buy the home he wanted for his family.
Solution
At Clayton-Welch Associates, we work with a comprehensive range of providers from across the market to help clients find the right mortgage.
We were able to find that mortgage for Mr Khan from the Halifax Building Society. They calculated his annual income based on his daily chargeable rate, which they multiplied up to a 48-week working year.
A good result for our client
This approach significantly increased the size of the affordable mortgage offered to Mr Khan so that he was able to buy the home he wanted for his family.
