When we met first time buyer Anthony, he had already managed to save a healthy 15% deposit. However, as he was a self-employed IT contractor with his own Limited Company, he was worried that it would be difficult for him to obtain a mortgage.

It’s a common assumption that getting a mortgage as a contract worker can be problematic. But with our expert contractor knowledge, we are were able to reassure Anthony that he was in a great position and that being a contractor would not present any issues.  We then went on to secure a mortgage for Anthony with a high street lender at a market leading 2 year fixed rate.

“I’d been to see other brokers and they all told me that as a self-employed IT contractor it would be difficult for me to get a mortgage, they also quoted me high broker fee’s.  I was recommended to speak to Mortgage Scout by the estate agent I was buying through.  I was so pleased that I did, Mortgage Scout were able to put my mind at ease and get me a great mortgage deal and it all went through smoothly!”
