You should add on extra to cover stress testing. Online mortgage calculators will help you work out how much you need to save/pay in rent to cover the mortgage amount you need. Betting transactions are usually a bit of a red flag, depends on the amount and frequency but I'd cancel any accounts immediately. You'll also need to show you have enough left money over to cover stamp duty, solicitor fees and other costs. Best of luck!

Mortgage would be less than €400 a month so hopefully I might get lucky. I also pay €246 a month on a car loan, however this can be cleared if necessary

I’m working for an established company which are going okay, and have all my saving/docs etc ready. My partners a teacher and has all her docs ready too. But we went to a broker and we’re told not to bother applying because I’m getting paid with COVID assisted payments from the government. We were told to hold off till April Anyone else have any issues because of COVID payments??? Would there be any issues going to the bank by ourselves?

Also those who already have Approval In Principle are not being allowed draw down the mortgage if either party are on the Government subsidy. Harsh but its just the banks being cautious

He sent it to me with a reference of "drug money" so it now appears on my statement as such. I've given him an ear full about the idiocy of this but I'm genuinely concerned that this will be flagged when I'm having my statements reviewed. It was money he owed me for pizza. Could I ring the bank and ask them to change the reference or something?
guyfawkes5 wrote: » Try asking them. Alternatively you could send yourself or get someone to send you money with 'the above is a bad joke' as a reference. I wouldn't stress out too much about it, I doubt underwriters will hit that line and go 'aha' and immediately void your mortgage application. It'll be a smile at best and a question posed to you at worst. Withdrawals from Paddy Power would probably be considered more serious.

klose wrote: » Hello all, just wondering does anyone have experience with salary certs and Sundays being paid as non guaranteed over time? My partner works an hourly rate and her contract is minimum 31 hours per week (always around 35+ a week but we are happy the bank will only take it for 31 hours as she earns good money) Her salary cert has X amount basic which is ticked guaranteed but over 5k in over time (time and a half for Sundays worked throughout the year) which is ticked as not guaranteed as she works retail which means she works different hours week to week some Sundays worked and some Sundays off. I understand why her employer tick it as not guaranteed but for the mortgage salary cert it looks bad as shes down basic pay but up "non guareteed" over time (Sundays worked) If we work out her minimum hours worked per week per year at her hourly rate just working Monday to Saturday she earns Y amount which is 3.5k more than her salary cert is listing as her basic pay? For me I thought overtime would be listed once worked past 39 hours in a week? Hopefully I'm not coming across as confusing here, thanks!
