𝐀𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐯𝐢𝐚 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐧 – 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐲

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭:
The client was self-employed and had a Buy to Let portfolio. Due to various factors including the Coronavirus pandemic, his income had fluctuated quite a lot over the past few years.

𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
The client had purchased a property at auction and was under a very tight timescale to complete the funding necessary.
The property purchase was a leasehold property with a very short lease remaining which would require extending before or at completion making the timescales even tighter.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
We looked at the options for a standard buy to let purchase mortgage and provided details to the client, advising the client that it was unlikely complete within the necessary timescales. This would mean he would have been at risk of penalty charges or at worst, losing the property completely along with any deposit and fees already paid.
After many discussions the client opted for an option we secured for a bridging loan with one of our specialist lenders who are able to complete on the deal within a short timeframe. The plan would then be to remortgage away from the bridging loan to a conventional buy to let mortgage after the necessary 6 month period of ownership had elapsed.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲:
Even when the route of conventional mortgage does not seem viable, being a whole of market broker means we have the knowledge and tools to find suitable funding within tight timeframes for our clients.

The clients were husband and wife. The husband was the sole earner, and on a very good income. The difficulty arose with the currency he was paid in – Saudi Dirhams, as he was working for a Saudi company.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨: 📝
The clients had saved a good deposit and had a very low credit card use, along with no bad credit or dependants. The main credit they had was a large car loan which had recently been arranged. The issue we were facing was that lenders who accept foreign income sometimes take a haircut (reduce affordability) to account for any potential future fluctuation in the currency exchange rate.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 💭
Being a whole-of-market Mortgage Broker, we have the knowledge to know that some lenders will accept foreign income for UK based residents to purchase a residential property in the UK. We approached these lenders to make sure we could cross reference the best deal with the lender that accepts the specific currency in question. They were happy with the case, and the affordability worked easily.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: 🏘️
It is possible to use sole income that is earned through a company outside of the UK, in a foreign currency.

◾ Some lenders will accept foreign currency, it can vary lender to lender which currency they will accept.
◾ Some lenders will apply a haircut to the amount to account for future changes.
◾ Some lenders will allow you to live in the UK but work for a foreign company.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭:
The client’s objective was to remortgage his Consumer Buy to Let property to repay the temporary Bridging Finance in place. They had already taken an extension to repay the Bridge and were running out of time. The bridging lender was threatening to take action to force sale of the property due to exceeding the term of the bridging finance, therefore client needed to move fast.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
On assessing the application, the bridging finance in place was a cross-charge over two properties, with most of the amount to be repaid secured against the client’s Consumer Buy to Let property. The affordability of the remortgage was failing, so it was agreed with the bridging company that the client could repay the charge against the Consumer Buy to Let property for £455,000, which would leave the remaining funds as a charge against the client’s residential property.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
The remaining funds of the bridge remained as a charge against the client’s residential property under new bridging terms, allowing the client to take another 12-month bridge with the same bridging lender. This reduced the risk of the bridging lender forcing a sale of their residential property.
A remortgage for £671,000 was secured for the client against the Consumer Buy to Let property and the affordability was self-funding from the rental income. £455,000 was used to repay the bridge and the remaining funds to repay the existing mortgage balance.
The client’s income would have increased substantially by the time the bridge was due to be repaid on the residential property which helps the client to remortgage the residential property to repay the remaining balance of the bridge.
The customer was then able to keep both properties and force of sale was eliminated.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲:
Even when our clients feel they have no options available to them other then the resale of properties we can assist as a whole of market Broker and find solutions for some of the most complex cases.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁:
The client was a retired Doctor who owned an unusual property which had a combination of Commercial, Residential and also Buy to Let units within the same building. He also owned another Buy to Let property in his portfolio. The client’s Income was predominantly from his pensions and also from land and property owned.

𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
The client wished to extend the subject property to allow for further use of the commercial element, thus significantly enhancing his rental income. He wished to refinance all current loans and raise capital toward the planned extension works. However, due to the multiple types of property contained in the single title his current lenders and high street lending options were not available to him.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
We sought out a specialist Commercial Lender who was able to accommodate the multiple different uses within the single freehold title, whilst also still ensuring the interest rate was remained as competitive as possible.
We discussed in detail with the Lender upfront regarding their specific criteria particularly towards the minimum and maximum size of each unit within the overall freehold and also confirmed this with the client prior to our application to avoid any potential pitfalls.

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:
Mixed use properties require specialist Lenders, since High Street Lenders do not lend on this type of property, nor do a number of Commercial Lenders, especially when criteria such as single freeholds, capital raising and building works all apply. In instances such as these, an experienced and knowledgeable Commercial Finance Broker have all the required expertise to be able to secure the best deal and rates available, as well as crucially ensuring a successful completion to the refinance.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁:
Our client was re-mortgaging their marital home as part of divorce proceedings. During the divorce, they were renting in private accommodation and then once completion of the remortgage had taken place, the subject property would become the client’s main residence and his ex-wife would move out.
The client was unable to wait for the divorce to be finalised as they required the mortgage offer in place as requested by the courts. The ex-wife was unable to afford to keep the marital home and the client didn’t want to lose the property. The client was self-employed and the income evidenced for the last 12 months was failing affordability with many lenders.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
Upon assessing the application, we identified that part of the land had some commercial elements, therefore we were limited on lenders that we could approach on residential mortgage terms. Due to the constraints of the divorce proceedings, the client was unable to wait for the title to be amended and split correctly, separating the commercial and residential elements to the property. It became evident the client required a lender that would work on projected figures.
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
A first mortgage was raised for the client. The lender we recommended for the client was happy to assess the application taking the clients’ current circumstances into consideration and the lender was happy to assess the remortgage on their residential terms. This then allowed the client sufficient time to remortgage on better terms later and to split the title once the divorce settlement and first charge mortgage had been finalised.
The mortgage lender was also happy to use clients projected income figures. The client completed an Accountants Certificate with an explanation from the accountant as to why the income had increased. The selected lender was happy to proceed, and the client was able to keep their marital home.

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:
Divorce proceedings are naturally usually very challenging and stressful for all parties involved and even more so when a marital home is involved. However, working a Mortgage Broker who has experience in being dealing with these complex and sensitive matters removes a significant amount of stress and enables specialist lenders to be sourced who understand the issues.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭
The clients had a large portfolio of properties within their local area who were wanting to raise funds for ongoing property purchases and building projects that they had lined up. Both applicants were mainly self-employed, with one applicant having income from employment.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
Due to ongoing investment plans, they needed to raise funds from their existing properties. The issue was, most of their properties had a mortgage which were on fixed rates, meaning that if they were to raise funds via remortgaging, they would have Early Repayment Charges (ERCs) to pay. The client’s current residential property however was unencumbered (no mortgage) therefore this was going to be the most cost-effective route for raising the required funds.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
After gathering the clients’ self-employed tax documents covering the past 3 Years, we were able to carry out a detailed Affordability Assessment to see how much they would be able to borrow. Initial affordability calculations showed good client affordability, however a lot of lenders also take into account the Buy to Let Mortgages in the background and run an affordability assessment on those as well. Although the mortgages were covered by the monthly rental income, the way Lenders assess this can often reduce the amount they are willing to lend on the residential mortgage. Additionally, some Lenders do not lend to applicants who have above a certain number of investment properties.
After sourcing a Lender who could provide the clients with the required funds on a competitively low interest rate, the application was submitted and proceeded to offer within just two weeks. The funds have subsequently been released and in turn we have assisted the client with obtaining an additional mortgage for the purchase of another Buy to Let property.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲:
When trying to raise funds against your residential property, every Lender has different criteria on which those funds can be used, as well as different assessment on affordability of background income. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure you speak with an experienced Mortgage Broker who understands the Lenders’ criteria to save you time and money when trying to secure a residential remortgage.

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 – 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐲

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭:
The clients were experienced landlords looking to purchase their first semi commercial property. They had a large amount of outstanding credit in their personal names but a good amount of net worth and equity across their residential and investment properties. Both applicants are self-employed with a clean credit history.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
The property consisted of two commercial units on the ground floor and a large flat above producing a yield of 11.5%. They also owned several leasehold flats in the same area which are above a separate commercial unit, however the freehold to these flats was under the commercial title. The client had negotiated the purchase of this commercial unit so that they could obtain the freehold, however as the commercial unit was vacant and very small capital value, sourcing a lender to provide borrowing on the unit would not be an option on its own.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
After already sourcing a commercial lender for the semi-commercial purchase, we were able to get the lender to add the individual commercial unit onto the same mortgage to allow the client to purchase both properties under one loan. This not only secured the client two new commercial investment properties, but also the freehold of the existing residential investment properties. A 75% LTV mortgage was secured on an interest only basis over 25 Years.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
The commercial investment market has grown in popularity in recent years, however there are a lot of complexities involved with the mortgage process, and most lenders will only lend via Commercial Mortgage Brokers. If you are in the market for a commercial property, or are looking at remortgaging an existing property, speak with our experienced brokers today who can offer years of Commercial lending experience to help you on your investment journey.

𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 / 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 – 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭:
The client is a Freight Forwarder business and has traded as a Limited Company for the past 7 years, with a healthy turnover of circa £600,000 per annum.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
The client has had consistent cash flow issues due to their providing standard payment terms of 60 days to their customers for invoices, in addition to experiencing occasional late payments. Conversely the operating costs of the business, being predominantly wages, needed to be paid either weekly or monthly, therefore presenting an overall cashflow issue.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
The client was initially presented with several Business Loan options we managed to secure for them, although they ideally wanted a greater degree of flexibility in their borrowing. We therefore searched the whole market for an Invoice Finance facility for them as this was deemed the most suitable solution for their needs.

We managed to secure a £100,000 Invoice Finance Facility which will enable them to be paid advances on their outstanding invoices up to the facility limit over the coming year. The facility works with the lender deducting a set percentage as their fee, once the invoice has been paid by the client’s customers.
This solution and Invoice Finance Facility will greatly aid the client’s cashflow when they need it most and it won’t be restricted by any rigid monthly repayment terms.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲:
Invoice Finance / Factoring is designed to increase a company’s cashflow and fund growth. It is a relatively quick method for accessing business finance against a company’s account receivables.

Whilst personal and business credit may prevent access to Business Loans in some cases, Invoice Factoring Lenders are more focussed on the ability of a business’s clients payment history.

The facilities put in place are invariably Unsecured options which don’t require security over and above the invoices themselves, whilst also removing the time-consuming headache of chasing payments, since these now become the responsibility of the lending partner.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭:
Our client was a UK citizen who already owns one Holiday Let property as well as his own residential property and was about to complete on another Holiday Let property. The client works as a Train Driver on a good income, with both basic plus overtime pay.

The client had Bridging Finance in place against his own residential property and used the funds to buy his first Holiday Let months earlier. He was wishing to now pay off the more expensive Bridging Finance (“exit the bridge”) with a remortgage on his residential home as well as secure a new Holiday Let mortgage for the new purchase.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨:
The client had sufficient equity in his residential property to remortgage and release sufficient equity for the deposit of the new Holiday Let property. However, before contacting us, the client had been trying for several months with other Brokers to secure the funding but had been unsuccessful. He has a high debt to income ratio and this was most likely the reason he had been struggling as he needed the equity from his residential to act as the deposit for the new Holiday Let.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
Being a whole-of-market Broker, we have the knowledge to know that some Lenders internal credit scoring systems allow an application to be considered even where a client is highly “geared” – i.e. high debt to income ratio. So long as the credit score passes and the client have maintained their credit agreements to a satisfactory level, certain Lenders will still consider an application. In this particular instance, we were able to use a High Street Lender who accepted the client’s residential remortgage.

For the Holiday Let purchase, since the client already owned one and has a good income, we were able to secure him the best deal on the market for this, which fitted the Lender’s criteria perfectly. It was also beneficial that the client already has the onward purchase resolved as that can often hold up residential remortgages, as lenders’ wish to know the specific details etc.

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲:
When trying to remortgage a clients’own residential home, it can be often be difficult when the client owns multiple properties and has a high debt to income ratio. However, options do exist, especially if all existing credit agreements have been well maintained.

-Debt to income ratio.
-Good payment history.
-If you don’t have an onward purchase, most residential lenders will want to see one or at least know the details.
-If you already own a Holiday Let, and earn over £30k, you are in a good position with Lenders to be able to purchase another Holiday let.
-Just because you have had setbacks or issues, doesn’t mean it’s not possible – you just need to work with an experienced Broker.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁:
Our client is an Expat working as a Sales Director and living in Hong Kong until recently when he moved to Japan. The client works for a UK based multi-national company and earns good income with most of his overseas expenses also being paid by the company.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼:
The Client was seeking an Expat Residential Mortgage to enable him to purchase a property for him and his family to live in upon their upcoming return to the UK. The client had a handsome 40% deposit.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
Being a whole-of-market Broker, we could easily offer standard Expat mortgage rates and terms to this client as we have access to all of the Expat Mortgage Lenders, including the specialist lenders.
However, through our specialist Expat knowledge and experience along with the clients’ strong credit profile and large deposit, we were actually able to offer him standard UK Resident (non expat) mortgage rates, even though they were still living in Japan. This was an excellent outcome for the client as the rate secured was an overall 1.1% cheaper than the cheapest Expat market rate that the client was eligible for.

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:
When looking for a “Buy to Live” property it is important to remember that a family member will have to occupy the property when the mortgage holder is abroad, as the property cannot be left vacant since this would invalidate the buildings insurance.

𝑲𝒆𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒂𝒕 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒈𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒔:
-Certain currencies will not be accepted by Lenders- usually if the currencies are considered volatile.
-Expat Mortgage Interest Rates are usually higher than standard (UK Resident) mortgage rates.
-Lenders’ Arrangement Fees are usually a percentage of the loan rather than a flat / fixed fee.
-The client/s will need an active bank account and credit footprint in the UK.
-Loan to Values are typically lower.
