Some lenders agree loans on affordability and not on income multiples - so the answer is maybe.
The reason it is maybe is because they take into account your current financial situation - so if you have no existing financial commitments and a good credit rating then you may get this high.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Sorry - forgot about the graduate mortgage scenario. Again some lenders offer higher multiples to graduates of UK universities - has to be within a certain timescale though, that you graduated.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
