You won't be able to use your second job unless you can get a 15% deposit. All the 10% lenders have a 6 month in second job requirement.trackboy said:
Yeh I can get that in writing that should not be problem. Does that mean I can use my 2nd job with 1 payslip and 10% deposit.haras_n0sirrah said:
I have had a look - with the lenders currently doing 10% you would need to have had job 2 for 6 months. There is a possibility though of using a payrise if the employer will confirm it in writing and it is due to start within the next 3 monthstrackboy said:
No at most I could manage is 12%. My credit score is excellent will that help? Also my first job I am getting promoted within 3 months times. Which will boost my salary to 60k for my first job.haras_n0sirrah said:
At 10% I think you will struggle - there just are so few lenders in that space. Have you got any possibility of getting to 15%?trackboy said:
I will need to include my 2nd job to get the mortgage i am looking for roughly 400k figure. My 2nd job is flexible work from home so doesn't get in way of my 1st job. 6 months sounds like a lot. Is there no possibility of getting it with 1st payslip?haras_n0sirrah said:
Generally you will need 6 months in a second job before lenders will include it. How much do you need to borrow? Would it fit affordability on just the first job? There is a lender with 15% deposit who may include a second job with less than 6 months however it will be subject to a plausibility check (are the jobs in similar fields, are the hours in each job sustainable etc)trackboy said:Hi,
I am currently in secure job on railway earning well over 50k. I have recently started a 2nd job working from home. I will be getting my first pay cheque from my 2nd job by end of October.
I have seen a property that I like and have made offer hoping to be accepted. My question is during the times like now would it be possible to get mortgage using both my job. Are there any Lenders that will accept me with 10% deposit.
If you can get confirmation of your payrise it is possible you can use your higher income in job 1 but you still won't be able to use job 2
I will be missing out on stamp duty relief. Is there no way out of this? 0 -

We got our offer today and would like to give @haras_nosirrah a massive thank you for that. This year has been horrendous and we’ve had everything thrown at us, furlough, redundancy, adverse on our files.... just never thought it would happen for us. But she never flinched and we’ve gone from application to offer in little over 2.5 weeks - and it was a breeze. Thank you so very much, you’ve made our little family very happy!

How accurate are Halifax AIP? We have been given an AIP for 75% ltv through our mortgage advisor and are using the First Home Fund (applied last week for this and are awaiting the award letter) My partner has a poor credit rating and approx 5 defaults (all satisfied with exception of 1 telecoms) from 2015/16 when he was out of work, so it was a surprise to be approaching a high street lender. I am nervous our mortgage will be declined now as I have read mixed opinions online.0

Halifax should be ok as long as the adverse box has been ticked. They only search 3 years on aip I believe but 6 on full application. As long as the adverse was declared on aip it should be ok, if it hasn't it can cause a problem when they widen the searchlmcint36 said:How accurate are Halifax AIP?
