    So after fees, you'd need to borrow around £118k?

    How long has he been self-employed and low long has his net profit been £28k?

    Any other credit commitments which will continue for more than 6 months after you move? If so, how much each month? Any dependents?

    Mortgage payments and credit always up to date?

  • thx hes been self employed for apprx 15years his net profit has remained around the same for the last few years, he remortgaged a 3 years ago to pay his ex wife off! and is currently with the halifax.

    as for other financial committments he has a loan and 2 credit cards which are all up to date and the monthly pay out for those are £360 per month he has no problem in the last 12 months with any missed payments although he does have a ccj which will come off his report in April after the 6 years but he would have had that 2 years ago along with the other financial committments when he remortgaged.

    oh yes and he has 3 dependants and another on the way hence the house move :)

    i hope this information is ok
