Self Certification Mortgage
Self Cert Mortgage - How do these mortgages work?
The loan part is no different from any other mortgage, it is the underwriting that is different. Normal Full Status mortgages are justified on the basis of having a Permanent Job, which is proved with payslips, P60 and normally a reference from the Employer.
If you are Self Employed a Full Status mortgage is justified with 3 years accounts showing sufficient taxable income. In these circumstances up to 95% or even 100% might be available. Another way as to be found when there is no Permanent Job, or taxable profits have been minimised, or some other reason that causes there to be no provable income. |
