Different lenders may have different criteria upon which they will agree to lend.  One of their main factors lenders look at is the length of time you have been employed.

Self Cert Mortgages

Self-employed for more than 3 years - If you have been self-employed for more than 3 years then all self employed mortgage lenders would classify this as meeting their requirements.
Self-employed for 2 years - If you have been self-employed for 2 years the availability of our lenders will decrease, but we may still have options for you.
Self-employed for less then 1 year – We will be restricted to fewer lenders.  We understand how difficult it is to obtain a mortgage after the first years of trading.

Self employed customers have historically had a hard time when applying to re- mortgage. Self employed customers are considered a higher risk and as such are charged more in both upfront costs and higher rates. The criteria that self certification lenders use is different to that of a status mortgage, but this does not mean we cannot find the right self certification mortgage for you.
If you are self employed, a company director, contract worker or freelancer it is possible that you may not be able to provide three years trading accounts. As a consequence it can be difficult to secure the mortgage you want.  

With some self cert mortgages, you declare what your income is; the responsibility is yours to confirm you have sufficient income to service the repayments. Please be advised that this does not mean that you can lie about your income.

In short, if you know you can pay a mortgage, but have difficulty proving it in the usual way, Crystal Clear Home Loans may be able to help with a self certification mortgage.
Even if you have adverse credit or previous arrears we have access to lenders who can help. Click Quote Me now to pass your details to us, so that one of our experienced fully qualified mortgage advisors can give you a free no obligation quote.
