Barristers often require a bespoke mortgage arrangement that factors in their enhanced earnings potential and net worth. This can make applying for a mortgage challenging, and means finding the right mortgage broker that can offer accurate advice and a network of lenders is vital for success.
Yes, we can agree non-standard terms with a few select lenders that will use a projection of your first year’s earnings as a tenant and use this projection when carrying out their affordability assessment. The projection must come from the chambers’ clerk and is normally based on what past pupils have earned in their first full year as a member of the chambers.
You certainly can. Depending on how much you need to borrow, we’re able to negotiate terms with certain lenders where they’ll either use your first full year’s earnings towards affordability, or a projection of your future earnings if this is significantly higher and required to meet the desired loan amount. The projection needs to be backed up by a letter from your chambers clerk, receipt of payments into your bank account and billed work.
As long as there’s a track record of similar earnings, or your chambers clerk can support your income projection based on billed earnings, we’re able to agree terms with lenders that will base affordability on billed, as well as received, earnings.
Yes, we have access to lenders that’ll take a common-sense approach to how barristers are remunerated and are aware that your income increases exponentially following pupillage, therefore we can secure terms based on a projected income figure with the support of a reference from the chambers clerk.
We’ve arranged many mortgages for barristers that require funding for tax purposes. These mortgages are not commonly available on the high street, but we work with specialist lenders who recognise that barristers can encounter liquidity constraints due to their aged debt and will allow capital raising for tax purposes.
We have access to lenders that will allow an income multiple of up to six times annual earnings for barristers, which can make a real difference if you’ve been turned down by a high street lender and need a higher income multiple to borrow the amount you need.
Yes: the ability to do this hinges on the lender assessing affordability and plausibility of running two residential mortgages at once. We’ve had success explaining to underwriters that purchasing a second property is more convenient and time-efficient than a burdensome long commute, while also acting as a good long-term investment.
Yes, most underwriters are aware that barristers and KCs often work beyond the current state retirement age. We have relationships with many lenders who will consider a mortgage application up to age 75 or even 80, without requiring evidence of retirement income. Additionally, we can help secure a retirement interest-only mortgage to make provisions for an income reduction as you approach retirement.
