Many specialist lenders look beyond missed payments, defaults, CCJs, or debt management plans and focus on your current financial situation instead.

We’ve shared more about how adverse credit borrowers may still be able to secure a mortgage in our latest blog 👇

🪄 But it’s not all doom and gloom.

👩🏼‍💻 There are ways to make it work, and more support options exist than many first-time buyers realise. The key is knowing where to look and getting the right guidance.

🚫 Think you can’t get a mortgage if you’re self-employed?

Think again…

There’s a lot of outdated advice out there - and it’s stopping people from even trying.

❌ “You need 2–3 years of accounts”
❌ “Your income has to be the same every year”
❌ “It’s much harder to get approved”

The truth?

✔️ Some lenders will consider just 1 year of accounts
✔️ Your income doesn’t have to be perfect - just understood properly
✔️ There ARE options out there - you just need to know where to look

Being self-employed doesn’t mean you can’t get a mortgage - it just means you need the right guidance.
