Self-Employed Page

If you're self-employed, obtaining a mortgage can be more challenging than for employed individuals. However, at Property Link Homes, we understand the unique needs of self-employed individuals and offer various mortgage and financing options tailored to your specific needs.

The Challenges of Self-Employment

Self-employed individuals face different challenges when applying for a mortgage. They often have irregular income streams and less job security than employed individuals. Self-employed mortgage applications can require more documentation, such as tax returns and business accounts, to prove the borrower's income and affordability.

How Property Link Homes Can Help

At Property Link Homes, we have extensive experience in providing mortgage and financing services to self-employed individuals. We understand the unique needs and challenges of self-employed individuals and can help you easily navigate the process.

We offer a range of mortgage options tailored to your specific needs, including fixed-rate mortgages, variable-rate mortgages, and self-employed mortgages. Our mortgage advisors can help you determine which option is best for you and guide you through the process.

The Process of Self-Employed Mortgage Applications

Before starting your search for a new home, getting pre-approved for a mortgage is important. Pre-approval can help you understand how much you can afford and simplify the home-buying process. At Property Link Homes, we offer pre-approval for self-employed mortgages to help you get started on your home-buying journey.

Self-employed mortgage applications require more documentation than traditional mortgage applications. In addition to tax returns and business accounts, you may also need to provide bank statements and other financial information. 

Our mortgage advisors can help you understand exactly what documentation is required for your situation.

Once your application has been approved, we'll guide you through the legal requirements and paperwork involved in the process. 

Throughout the process, we'll be on hand to answer any questions you may have and provide guidance and support as needed.

Self-employed individuals may be required to have a larger down payment than employed individuals. This is because lenders may perceive self-employed individuals as having less job security and a less predictable income stream.

A self-employed mortgage may be the best option in various situations. For example, if you are starting a new business, have a fluctuating income, or have been self-employed for less than two years, a self-employed mortgage may be the best option for you.
