Hi

Ps i have no debts and a good credit history.

Cheers Randomhed

    any deposit?

    you may be able to go through a broker who might lend you more , based on affordability.

    alexander hall would probably offer you more but just based on affordability.

    if you don't have a deposit they are very unlikely to lend you the money as it shows poor financial management

    first national will lend more than anyone, but you need to ensure the repayments are affordable.

    never heard of Alexander Hall

    what multiplier do these guys go up to?
  • Is there special reason why you would want to get yourself up to the more difficult levels of debt? Many savvy individuals might think you would be safer renting with your level of income and the market at its current level.

    To answer the topic - abbey are advertising 5x, I know not if it would apply to your case.

    except for the general public when it can mean whatever they want it to.

    you really are a spamming monkey

    A fee of 1% of the loan may be payable on completion, subject to a minimum of £2,250.

    What is the purchase price you are looking at? So we can see what mortgage amount you need or are aiming for.

    That would get you a perfectly good studio apartment in most places in the country.
