£
The deposit is the amount of money you can pay up-front towards a property. Most lenders require at least 5% of the properties value as deposit for a mortgage, e.g. £10k on a £200k property.
£
Loan to value:
The price of the property you'd like to buy. If you're unsure of the property's exact value, a rough estimate is fine.
£
Max property value:
The period you would like to pay your mortgage off over. A longer term can reduce your monthly repayment, but you will pay more interest. You can change term whenever you remortgage. Typically the maximum term is up to retirement age.
years
Interest rate is the percentage charged by a lender on the amount borrowed. Interest rates are often based on the borrowers situation and the risk involved for the lender. Some of the factors taken into account by lenders include your credit score, loan to value (LTV) and mortgage term.

Potential property value:

£

Based on x your household income and the addition of your deposit, you could potentially buy a property of this value.


Mortgage Amount

With the income you've told us about, this is the amount lenders may be willing to let you borrow. Some lenders may offer you more or less, based on their own criteria.


Lenders are typically willing to lend 4-5 times your income. We've calculated this number by taking your income of £ and multiplying it by . Some lenders may offer more or less of an income multiple depending on your situation.

Monthly Repayment

This is an estimate of your monthly repayment, based on the interest rate and mortgage length you entered. To lower your monthly repayments, you can increase your deposit or mortgage term.


Monthly mortgage repayments are based on the loan amount (principal), interest rate, and loan term, using a formula that accounts for both interest and reducing the principal over time.

Loan to Value

Loan to value (LTV) is the percentage of the properties value borrowed using a mortgage. Lower LTV's are considered less risky and lenders may offer better interest rates as a result.


LTV is calculated by dividing the loan amount by the value of the property and then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. E.g. if you borrowed £90k to buy a £100k house, your LTV would be 90%. To lower your LTV, increase your deposit or buy a cheaper property.

Any questions?

We're a judgement-free zone. If you still have questions, we've heard most of them before. Here are some of them answered by our team of experts.

Got questions?

Yes, it’s possible. It can often feel more difficult to get a mortgage when you work for yourself as most self-employed people have slightly more complex earnings than someone who is employed with salary payslips to show as their proof of income.

When you’re self-employed, it just means the evidence you show to prove you can afford your mortgage repayments will need to be different and involve your business’ certified accounts or your latest SA302 tax calculations and tax year overview.

This will depend on a few different things:

  • your income

  • your outgoings

  • your credit history

  • the kind of property you want to buy. 

You shouldn’t be able to borrow any less if you’re self-employed compared to if you’re full-time employed. The only difference is the proof of income you’ll need to provide in order to support your application for the amount you want to borrow.

If you’re self-employed this will likely be through the last two to three years certified business accounts or your latest SA302 tax calculations and tax year overview.

No, not at all. You shouldn’t have to pay higher interest just because you’re self-employed.

However, if you’re only recently self-employed, you may be restricted on the number of mortgage lenders willing to consider your application. This could mean you’ll have less chance of qualifying for the most competitive rates.
