Returning Expat

Hi,
I've been working abroad for 5 years and returned in November, 2015. I found a new job and started in January this year (full time now, probation was January). I'm a UK citizen and I've had a UK bank account for many years, my credit history is good. I'm not sure if it was legal but I stayed on the electoral (at my parents address).
I've been told that Halifax might consider a mortgage application based around my circumstances. Does anyone know other lenders or can anyone give me advice?
Thanks:-)
