Why contractors need help with mortgage?
As an independent mortgage broker, we’ve tackled the unfair bias against limited company contractors, whose payment structure differs from PAYE.
We partner with banks and underwriters to navigate the complex landscape of contracting and simplify the process of using contract earnings alone for affordability assessments.
Today, we collaborate with an expanded network of contractor-friendly lenders, enabling contractors to secure mortgages based on their gross contract income, whatever the individual’s situation might be.
Why borrowing against day rate matters?
Traditional mortgage assessments often rely on net income, as shown in annual accounts and SA302 forms, which can significantly understate a contractor’s true earning potential.
Contractors often receive income in lump sums based on their contracts, not regular monthly salaries. This can make their net income appear lower after expenses and taxes. By considering gross contract income, lenders can provide a more accurate reflection of a contractor’s financial capability, enabling them to borrow larger amounts.
This approach acknowledges the unique earning structure of contractors and ensures they are not unfairly disadvantaged when seeking mortgage approval.

FAQ’S
Can I get a contractor mortgage if I have bad credit?
Yes, securing a contractor mortgage as a first-time buyer is possible even with bad credit. However, a poor credit history may limit your options and lead to higher interest rates or stricter lending criteria. We recommend consulting with one of our specialist advisors, as lenders offer tailored products for different credit profiles. Choosing the right lender is essential for a successful mortgage application.
How much deposit do I need for a contractor mortgage?
