Employment History for FTB Mortgage
165721
Posts: 170 Forumite
Hi,
I was just wondering what most mortgage lenders require in terms of employment history. I have one going back a while (prior to a month ago though it was up and down as I was casual, but never less than about £600 a month) but I have only been in my current, OK paid job for a month. Is the 6 months that most people ask for in one job or in total? I am looking for a smallish 55% mortgage to fund the purchase of a newly built apartment.
Cheers,
Jack

Unfortunately I will never have a permanent contract in my line of work (1 year max). I am currently on a probationary 3 month contract to be extended to a year in 8 weeks time...Littlewoods catalogue - won back charges of £300 by default.
