Hi,

I just wondered if anyone knows about salary multiples. I've seen a house that I really like for £180k. I have £50k equity so would need a mortgage of £130k. On the salary multiples it says that the max I can borrow is £100k.

Would I be eligible to borrow more as I have equity?

Thanks

    Different lenders offer differing amounts. I am sure a lender will offer you more if you ask, just be sure you can afford the repayments.

    All lenders have different multiples, and some uses affordability based lending calculations.

    What is your gross annual salary and what is your partners gorss annual salary?

    Do you have any current monthly financial commitments?
