    have you started working again, and can your accountant provide a projected income for this year?

    Thank you for your reply
    I have been back working for six months and will ask my accountant.
  • there are plently of mortgages out there which can cater for you, perhaps if you try a broker they might be able to give you a range of options.

    Prior to your year off, how long were you self employed for?
