We are looking to purchase a house and I am looking for some advice as to lenders that I should approach.
We are looking to borrow 150K and have a deposit of over 200K
All seems fine up to now, however I own the company that employs me. I earnt 20K last year from my own business and drew 50K from previous years profits as a dividend, in previous years the split has been the other way around.
Who should I approach as many lenders do not wish to lend to company directors

As long as you have proof of your income, you will be fine with many lenders

All looks OK
I suggest having a word with a whole of market mortgage adviser, and let them run the details past the lenders (in generic format) to get a feel for whether the lenders would be happy and which ones

A consistant combined earning & dividend income of £70,000 for £150,000 mortgage, you should have no problem with any lender. Really just a question of choosing the mortgage that suits your needs.I am a Mortgage Adviser
