Mortgage for Supply Teacher

jack1092

Hi All,

First time post!

Recently married my wife, she's from Newcastle + we moved to Belfast where i am from. She had over 5 years teaching permanent in Newcastle before moving here. We were told it was very diffcult for Sophie to get a full-time job here teaching initially, so she went around 200 schools passing round her CV, it didn't take a day until she was in a school nearby teaching. The teacher of the class has just went off on maternity + Sophie is in full-time covering her maternity. Now i know that means the job should come to an end blah blah. However, is it still possible to get a mortgage? I work full time earning between 30k, around 35 with bonuses. In receipt of company car. On our incomes we could easily cover the mortgage- it's just will banks accept the supply part?

Brief breakdown:
Sophie as only been in the supply job 2 months- before that she was still being paid from her permanent job, so there's no break in monthly wages as such.

We have a hefty enough deposit of around 60k, the house is 300k.

No adverse credit.

Thanks in advance,

Jack
