First time buyer mortgage broker 

Are you ready to step into your first home? Did you know that the average age of first-time buyers in the UK has hit a record high of 30 years? Securing mortgages has become more challenging than ever, making accurate information crucial.

Can Self-Employed Individuals Obtain a First-Time Buyer Mortgage?

The path to purchasing your first home can seem daunting, especially when you’re a contractor. You might have been discouraged by people saying you won’t qualify for a mortgage. While it may pose additional challenges, don’t let this dissuade you. What you need is professional guidance, and that’s where Mortgage Knight steps in.

Ways to Improve Your Chances of Securing a Contractor First-Time Buyer Mortgage:

Consult a specialist advisor. Explore available government schemes, such as Help to Buy. Be selective in your search – not all mortgage providers will suit your needs! Consider adding an extra £100 to your deposit if you’re on the cusp of a deposit band. Keep your credit utilization low—avoid maxing out credit cards or overdrafts. Rein in spending before making your application. Avoid applying for additional credit just before your mortgage application. Ensure you’re registered to vote, if not already. Check for any errors on your credit report.

Expert Guidance for First-Time Mortgages:
