How Much Can You Borrow?
 

When you're self-employed, your borrowing isn’t based on just one income figure. The way your income is assessed can make a significant difference.
 

We ensure lenders consider your full financial position, including:

  • Salary and dividends

  • Company profits (we can use pre or post corporation tax profits)

  • Retained earnings

  • Latest year performance

  • Pension contributions

  • Projected income

Example: Increasing Borrowing for a Company Director
 

A limited company owner was earning £12,570 salary and £20,000 in dividends (£32,570 total), which would typically allow borrowing of around £140,000.

However, their business made around £60,000 profit. By using a lender who considered salary plus company profits, we were able to use an income of £72,570.

👉 This increased their borrowing to around £400,000.

This shows how using the right lender and presenting income correctly can dramatically improve your borrowing potential.
