If you'd like to tell us about your job we might be able to comment on its likely impact.
Hi yes, My mrs she has job and I work at the same company. She is on 42K for 4 months ( but bank was asking for the last payslip) and I have started new role at £47K at the same company. ( Property small limited company ) and due to receive 1st payslip at the end of this month. ( I have submitted contract ) to the bank.
The property is £510K and we had only £50K depositOP, the things I've put in bold put together must have scared the lender off. Not saying that you're doing anything dodgy but even to my untrained eye it comes across as high risk.Who owns the "small limited company", are you or were you directors of the company? How are you related to the owners? What were you doing before this employment?I would normally say go to a broker but they'll suss out any irregularities far quicker than a bank advisor would
