New job/new mortgage?

Options
Hi there - hoping a mortgage expert might be able to help with this?

The flat we were supposed to buy has fallen just through so we're back on the hunt again - problem is I just (literally - last Fri) found out I've got a new job which will probably be starting in around 6 weeks time which throws a bit of a spanner in the mortgage application works.

We're hoping to find a place within the next 4/6 weeks but if we don't how long will I have to wait before I can apply for a mortgage?

Thanks in advance!

    As long as you have a signed contract there will be lenders that could look at this now for you
