Attention Contractors!!
We had a client in today in a rather unusual situation that I thought was worth sharing. This individual had been employed in the same sector with the same company for many years, holding the same role, until he faced redundancy last September. He attempted to secure new employment, but it turned out to be more challenging than he initially expected. Consequently, he opted for a temporary contract instead of a permanent role. To finalise the contract, he was required to establish a limited company to receive payments for his work. As he had only recently set up the business, he had no financial records for the limited company and only one invoice, having commenced the position in December. After making several calls, we managed to identify a lender willing to offer a loan based on that single invoice. They agreed to lend, considering his extensive experience in the same job, despite the absence of limited company accounts. Have you postponed buying a new house or remortgaging due to a similar situation? If so, contact us at 01383 665250 or 01592 407080 for a discussion.
