if he did the same role in an employed capacity prior to going self employed, there may be some lenders prepared to consider this on a full status basis.
He would of course be able to show money being received that demonstrates the level of earnings he is declaring.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

I've gone back to self employment late last year and have a remortgage coming up, so I went to talk to the two banks where I have my personal accounts.
HSBC (who I also have my business accounts with) did a bit of poking around both the company account and my personal account and then declared themselves happy to lend me the money if I wanted it.
Nationwide explained to me that they'd also be happy to consider my business provided I can prove to them that I have either a contract renewal or a follow-up contract for my current one. They did seem to be a bit more relaxed about this whole thing compared to HSBC as well so once I know what's happening contract-wise I'll probably bother them again.0 -
In addition to invoices, bank statements and contracts he may also have to provide the HMRC statement - a lender I have spoken to recently would only accept the HMRC statement as proof of self employed income.0
