Work out how much you can borrow based on your income and deposit size.
The “How Much Can I Borrow?” calculator provides a helpful estimate based on your input of financial details, such as income and outgoings.
While it uses standard mortgage lending principles, the actual amount you can borrow will depend on more detailed affordability assessments conducted by lenders, including credit checks and individual circumstances.
Therefore, the calculator should be viewed as a guide, and speaking directly to a mortgage advisor will give you a more tailored figure.
The mortgage application process can vary depending on your situation and chosen lender.
Typically, from submitting your application to receiving an offer, it can take anywhere from two to six weeks.
This timeline includes securing a decision in principle, undergoing credit checks, and the lender reviewing your financial details and documentation.
Getting a mortgage with bad credit can be more challenging, but it’s not impossible.
Some lenders offer specialist products for those with adverse credit histories, such as missed payments or County Court Judgements (CCJs).
Keep in mind that you may need a larger deposit, and interest rates could be higher than for applicants with a clean credit record.
To apply for a mortgage, you’ll typically need to provide proof of income (such as payslips or tax returns for the self employed), bank statements, and proof of identity and address.
Lenders may also ask for details about any existing loans or debts, as well as your monthly expenses to assess your affordability.

I chose this company because sure of the reviews and then after talking to Jason, I felt comfortable. He found me an offer with NatWest but due to the long wait times with BCC, that offer expired. We had to get a new offer. I contacted Jason just before my offer expired. Sent him everything he needed and less than 3 weeks later, I got a new offer. The company is very responsive, I don’t think I’ve had to wait even 24 hours for a response to my emails. Every question answered quickly. Very decent price for the whole service. Once you get the offer through, they are still there every step of the way and everyone I’ve either spoken to or emailed have been extremely helpful. There is no part of my experience that I can say needs any improvement.

Matt has been brilliant, hes explained and walked me through everything making it as easy and as straight forward as possible. Matt has been at the end of the phone, every time I've had questions or just needed some reassurance, I would recommend moneymanuk to anyone who is looking for an independent mortgage adviser xx

Had a great experience with Money Man UK, who kept us informed and updated throughout every stage of the process. They were always transparent and never apposed to exploring all of our options and gave us time to consider them thoroughly. Would highly recommend and very glad we were recommended their services.

Very helpful and informative. As a first time buyer with limited knowledge I was Guided with patience and great knowledge. Mortgage and Insurance was sorted within 2 weeks as painless as possible. Even providing references for shortlist of solicitors and thus saving more time. Best part even after Mortgage deal is done they are still happy to respond to other questions too. For that they are invaluable!

I had a fantastic experience working with Chris as my mortgage advisor. He was incredibly patient, always took the time to explain things clearly, and gave thoughtful advice whenever I needed it. Stacey handled all my paperwork efficiently and kept me updated throughout the process. Thanks to their combined efforts, I received my mortgage offer in less than 7 days! I am really grateful for their support and highly recommend their services.

A very satisfied customer. Charlie Bryson was my mortgage advisor, and I found him to be an incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgeable person. He offered me detailed and in depth advise and recommended a very good deal. My case was then referred to Meghan Robinson, who took care of my application with the lender. Similar to Charlie, she took time to listen to my queries and updated me of the progress of the application. It took roughly 2 weeks for me to get a mortgage offer from the lender. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a mortgage/remortgage.
