An In-Depth at Specialist Mortgage Scenarios 

Here at Leedsmoneyman, we are here to welcome and help any mortgage applicants who are struggling with getting accepted by a lender. 

 

We have dealt with a plethora of customers with different mortgage scenarios and varied circumstances through our experience as a fast & friendly Mortgage Broker in Leeds. Here are some mortgage scenarios that we see regularly come up: 

Property Down Valuation

A property down valuation happens in the case where you have had a property survey carried out on the property but you have found the offer you put forward and accepted initially is above the market value of the property. 

Divorce & Separation Mortgage Advice 

In the unfortunate situation where you are going through a separation or divorce, it can be challenging to sort out what happens next.

 

If you are tied into a mortgage together, this can be difficult even more. Being quick with sorting this out is really important as the longer you leave it, the more complex the situation can get. 

Remove a Person from a Mortgage 

Leading on from the previous scenario, if you are going through a divorce or separation, there is the option to remove your name or your ex-partner’s name from your mortgage.

 

The options available to you varies depending on both of your financial stability also your affordability which will be judged through one form of income.

 

Single Name Mortgages for Married Applicants 

If you are married and are wanting to get a mortgage on a property that both you and your partner will live in, you may wish to take out a mortgage in only one of your names.

 

This is where you would look to see if you are eligible for a mortgage in a single applicant’s name.

 

Lenders would prefer both applicants on the mortgage as there would be two incomes instead of one however the option may still be there. 

Shared Ownership 

The Shared Ownership Scheme is a way for mortgage applicants to take out a mortgage on only a percentage of the property, as a share. The amount can vary between 25%-75%.

 

You will pay back rent to whoever to the individual who owns the remaining share, this is usually a local authority, and you will pay this as well as your payment. 

Professional Mortgages 

This is known as being a niche section of the mortgage market due to this type only being offered to very specific professions. Because of the specifications that comes with this mortgage, it’s best you get in touch with a specialist like ourselves for more information. 

Second Home Mortgages 

Taking out a mortgage for a second property will require you to demonstrate that you will be financially fit for covering two mortgage payments. Our team will be able to help you get ready for this. 

Holiday Home/Let Mortgages 

Similar to buy to let properties, however, holiday lets means you won’t have a tenant in there constantly which suggest that the property will be empty in periods that are off-season.

 

Lenders will need to be confident that you will still be able to afford the mortgage payments every time, even if the property is not occupied. 

New Build Mortgages 

You may find that new builds can be more expensive to invest in compared to properties from previous generations. The Help to Buy Equity Loan Scheme introduced by the government is fitting for only first time buyers who are finding saving up for their initial deposit challenging.

 

The scheme is a chance for people who are struggling to take their first step on the property ladder.  

Non-Standard Construction Property Mortgages 

A building that is not built by the standard building materials like bricks and mortar is known as a ‘non standard’ property.

 

It’s required that you take out a very specialist mortgage product in order to take out a mortgage under this type. In the instance where you are looking to buy a property that is under the category, we highly recommend you get a full structural property survey. 

Multiple Applicant/House of Multiple Occupation Mortgages 

HMO mortgages are like buy to lets but with 4-6 tenants involved. This one is generally used for student housing. Looking at specialist buy to let mortgage advice in Leeds would be something we would highly suggest to look into. This is because HMOs can be challenging to work with. 

Offset Mortgages 

Offset mortgage works in tandem with a savings account. Taking an Offset mortgage out could be very beneficial if you are wanting to look at competitive interest rates and mortgage products.

Common mortgage
questions

Our free initial mortgage consultation can roughly last up to 30 mins. As a skilled Mortgage Broker in Leeds, we can get you an Agreement in Principle within 24 hours after we have all the correct information. On average, a formal mortgage offer takes about three weeks. 

If you’re an employee, you will usually have to supply three pay slips to prove your income. If you are Self Employed in Leeds, it is typically the latest two years’ accounts. You will also need to provide proof of ID, address and three months’ bank statements. 

If you can show evidence of at least one year’s accounts, you may be able to get a mortgage. Most lenders in Leeds will use your salary plus dividend to work out your maximum mortgage. However, some can go off your net profit. 

Despite having shown any credit problems in the past, the good news is you may be able to get a mortgage, but it means you may be required to put down a higher deposit, e.g. 10 – 15% of the property purchase price.

Suppose you are looking to put down a deposit for a property in Leeds. In that case, most High Street lenders will ask for a minimum deposit of 5%, and others might ask for a higher amount depending on your circumstances, e.g. If you have had any previous credit problems.

You can have two mortgages running simultaneously, as long as you can afford to repay the monthly instalments on each of them. If you’re looking to accomplish something like debt consolidation or home improvements, you may be able to place a second mortgage on your home. 

An Agreement in Principle typically lasts for between 30 and 90 days depending on the Lender used. If your Agreement in Principle expires, it can easily get renewed by speaking to a Mortgage Advisor in Leeds. 

As a committed Mortgage Broker in Leeds, we will carry out a Fact Find to establish your personal needs before we go ahead with advising the most suitable mortgage for your circumstances. From there, you will be credit checked, which is a requirement to obtain an Agreement in Principle. Once you have provided all the relevant documentation and a valuation of the property has been undertaken, you can be issued a formal mortgage offer. 

Your free mortgage consultation with a Mortgage Advisor in Leeds will last around 30 mins. Once they have evaluated your circumstances, they will advise a mortgage with no obligation for you to proceed. Based on the deal, you can determine whether or not you want to continue the process. 

To help demonstrate that you are creditworthy and assess your affordability for a mortgage, we recommend getting an Agreement in Principle ready before viewing properties in Leeds. At the very latest, you should obtain one before making an offer to assist your bargaining position and show any seller that you are ready to proceed should they accept your offer. We are typically able to obtain an agreement in principle within 24 hours.
