Self Employed Mortgages

General information from Winwell Financial Consultancy. This guide is not a recommendation for your individual circumstances.

We are on hand to help self-employed business owners to get on the property ladder. Although it may be harder for self-employed people to prove their suitability for a mortgage – it is by no means impossible. We will walk you through the process and explain how a compelling case can be put forward for people who are self-employed and looking for a new home.

The Challenges of a Self-Employed Mortgage

Some self-employed workers may find it more difficult to get a mortgage compared with employees of a company. Common challenges our clients face are a limited trading history; variable profits as the business grows or reinvests in itself.

How We Overcome These Challenges

Our knowledge of the market and established relationships means we understand which lenders can take a flexible approach. Our experience and expertise allow us to compose a compelling case for why you are suitable for a mortgage.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
