Based on this I think you should save a little more and wait until your Husband has been in permanent employment for 6 months then try your broker.0 -
The detail of your husbands employment history is important.
Lenders normally ask for two years history on contracts (some one year) with 6 months ahead.
If your husband is now on a zero hours contract, that is an extra complication.
If this Broker says they can not help. It is worth checking with another.I am a Mortgage Broker
