    assuming you have a 5% deposit an estimate would be 87,636 including your wftc's but please reemember these could be withdrawn at any point in future especially after a change of leadership/government.

    If you took just your salary you could get around 59,500

    this is assuming you have no credit commitments currently

    You need to deduct £141 x 12 = £1692 from your gross income before applying any income multiples from the lenders
