Is it hard to get a self employed mortgage?

Being self employed can make it more challenging to get a mortgage but certainly not impossible, far from it. If you have chosen to go self-employed for the flexibility and freedom that it can offer then it may be difficult to meet strict mortgage lending criteria and affordability checks, even when your business is on the up.

The good news is that there are mortgage lenders that can be more flexible and understanding of the self employed situation. However it is really important the mortgage adviser you work with takes the time to understand your business and how you work. The difference between a mortgage approval and a mortgage decline can be as simple as something not being explained correctly and comprehensively. That is why it is essential to work with a professional

Mortgage broker who can find the mortgage that is right for you.

Ways to prove your income

To secure a mortgage it is essential that you explain and provide proof of income. The most common ways for a self employed mortgage seeker to prove income are as follows:

Company Accounts

These will clarify the way your income is structured including retained profits, dividends, director’s loans and shareholders funds. Accounts also give a structured account of year end finances and an indication of financial well-being.

Bank Statements

The mortgage lenders will look at your income and outgoings by checking your business and personal bank statements. The overall health of your bank statements will show the bank you have the capacity to make the new monthly mortgage repayments.

Salary, payslips and EDS*

If you are getting regular income from the business then these will show proof of that. If you are a sole trader you may not have some of these and that’s ok. *(EDS is a revenue employment details summary. Formerly known as a P60)

Revenue Notice of Assessment

This certificate indicates your net profit before tax for the year and gives the mortgage lender the information they need to complete the affordability assessment. This document is available from revenue.ie. If you do not have access to revenue.ie then your accountant will be able to provide this.

Accountant letter

Your accountant will provide you with a letter to confirm your tax affairs are all up to date.

Who can get a self employed mortgage?

Being self-employed can be seen as risky, as far as a mortgage lender is concerned, because it can be difficult to establish your income and some traditional lenders may assume that you may struggle to make your monthly repayments.

The fact is that the self employed mortgages available to you are conventional mortgages rather than a special financial product specifically for the self employed. However you will be expected to jump through more hoops to demonstrate your financial health and income. Self employed income is not always straight forward. It is vital that everything is explained and presented properly to the mortgage lender.

Improve your Chances

  • Trading for more than 2 years
  • Have an accountant
  • Healthy bank accounts
  • Audited accounts
  • A healthy deposit
  • Clean credit record

How will my self employed business structure affect my chances of getting a mortgage?

The biggest challenge for most self employed mortgage applicants is proving their income and explaining everything properly to the bank or mortgage lender.

Sole Trader & Partnerships

As a sole trader you may or may not pay yourself a regular income and you may have had a bad year. A mortgage lender can look negatively on these things. However if there are genuine reasons that make sense and income is secure going forward then mortgage lenders can be flexible. It is really important that the mortgage lender takes into account any profits that remain in the business and looks at your overall financial position.

Limited Company

A Director of a Limited company will be considered as an employee and will have to provide the normal PAYE documents like payslips and bank statements. However the bank will also want to see company accounts and tax returns to confirm the business can afford to pay you the salary that you need to get the mortgage. Determining your overall income can sometimes be a challenge, particularly if you take a low salary. An expert mortgage broker will look deeper into your overall situation and find the correct level of income that a bank will take into account for mortgage approval. Make sure you have an expert mortgage broker on your side

  • Less than 2 years accounts and a short trading history

  • low personal income even though the business is doing well

  • Business showing a loss in one of the last 3 years

  • Buying out an X business partner

If this is your situation then don’t panic!

These challenges can sometimes be overcome with some good advice. If you are currently taking a small income for tax purposes or if the business has recently made a loss but going forward is strong then we might be able to help.

At MortgageLine, we know the challenges that you might face and how to overcome them. At the very least we can talk things over with you and see where you stand.

How are self employed mortgages calculated?

Your income level and personal circumstances, like your age, will determine the size of a mortgage you can get.

Different mortgage lenders will look at your income in different ways. Some will look at an average of your income over the last 2 or 3 years or what the business can afford to pay you.

For a new business it may be better to be assessed on the last 2 years income rather than the last 3 to maximize the income.

If you have a second income available to you from another source like rental or investment income ect., then it might be possible this can be factored in too.

What is counted as self employed income?

  • For sole traders and partnerships the business gross net profits (before tax) are counted as income.

  • For Limited companies mortgage lenders can look at your salary and net profits combined.

Mortgage Lead Capture

Our Charges

We, Stephen Hamilton Financial Services act as intermediary (Broker) between you, the consumer, and the product provider with whom we place your business.

The background

Pursuant to provision 4.58A of the Central Bank of Ireland's September 2019 Addendum to the Consumer Protection Code, all intermediaries, must make available in their public offices, or on their website if they have one, a summary of the details of all arrangements for any fee, commission, other reward or remuneration provided to the intermediary which it has agreed with its product producers.

What is commission?

For the purpose of this document, commission is the payment earned by the intermediary for work undertaken on behalf of both the provider and the consumer. The amount of commission is generally directly related to the quantity or value of the products sold.

We are remunerated by commission and other payments from product producers. When assessing products, we will consider the different approach taken by product providers in terms of them integrating sustainability risks into their product offering. This will form part of our analysis for choosing a product provider.

Our Brokerage commission options are displayed as a range, showing the maximum amount which can be received. The level of commission depends on individual circumstances, based on the following factors:  

The factors that may impact a variation in charges include;

  • Client segmentation
  • Adviser discretion
  • Competitive pressures
  • Investment/pensions/saving size
  • Schemes size
  • Term/timeline of a policy or service
  • Complexity of advice
  • Preferential terms in the market, available to a Brokerage & client at the time

There are different types of commission models:

Single commission model:where payment is made to the intermediary shortly after the sale is completed and is based on a percentage of the premium paid/amount invested/amount borrowed. 
Trail/Renewal commission model:Further payments at intervals are paid throughout the life span of the product.
Indemnity commissionIndemnity commission is the term used to describe a commission payment made before the commission is deemed to be 'earned'. Indemnity commission may be subject to a clawback (see below) if the consumer lapses or cancels the product before the commission is deemed to be earned.

Other forms of indemnity commission are advances of commission for future sales granted to intermediaries in order to assist with set up costs or business development.

General insurance products

General insurance products, such as motor, home, travel, health, retail or liability insurance, are typically subject to a single or standard commission model, based on the amount of premium charged for the insurance product.

Profit Share arrangements

In some cases, the intermediary may be a party to a profit-share arrangement with a product provider and will earn additional commission. Any business arranged with these product providers on a client's behalf will be placed with the product provider because that product provider is at the time of placement, the most suitable to meet the client's requirements, taking all the client's relevant information, demands and needs into account.

Life Assurance/Investments/Pension products

For Life Assurance products commission is divided into initial commission and renewal commission (related to premium), fund based or trail relating to accumulated fund.

Trail commission, bullet commission, fund based or renewal commission are all terms used for ongoing payments. Where an investment fund is being built up though an insurance-based investment product or a pension product, the increments may be based on a percentage of the value of the fund or the annual premium. For a single premium/lump sum product, the increment is generally based on the value of the fund.

Examples of products include Life Protection, Regular Premium Life Assurance Investments, Single Premium (lump sum) Insurance-based Investments, and Single Premium Pensions.

Investments

Investment firms, which fall within the scope of the S.I. 375 of European Communities (Markets in Financial Instruments) Regulations 2017 (the MiFID Regulations), offer both standard commission and commission models involving initial and trail commission. Increments may be based on a percentage of the investment management fees, or on the value of the fund.

Credit Products/Mortgages

Commission may be earned by intermediaries for arranging credit for consumers, such as mortgages. The single, or standard, commission model is the most common commission model applied to the sale of mortgage products by mortgage credit intermediaries (Mortgage Broker).

Clawback

Clawback is an obligation on the intermediary to repay unearned commission. Commission can be paid directly after a contract is concluded but is not deemed to be 'earned' until after a specified period of time. If the consumer cancels or withdraws from the financial product within the specified time, the intermediary must return commission to the product producer.

Fees

The firm may also be remunerated by fee by the product producer such as policy fee, admin fee, or in the case of investment firms, advisory fees. Include arrangements etc

Please Note

The enclosed commission guidance section gives indicative values across every product provider and every product advised whereby a commission or fee is received within our business. This is the maximum our Brokerage will take and is subject to change, in certain cases our Brokerage may take a different remuneration than the enclosed percentages/amounts. This will be disclosed to each client as per the Central Bank Consumer Protection Code regulations, on a client by client basis.

Other Fees, Administrative Costs/ Non-Monetary Benefits

The firm may also be in receipt of non-monetary benefits such as:

  • Attendance at product provider seminars
  • Assistance with Advertising/Branding
