This is me. £150K p/a, > 3 years of accounts but banks can't understand low salary and high dividends so won't give me a decent mortgage. Plus my credit rating is fucked from moving to a different rental place each year. I'm looking at auctions instead. I've heard a rumour Halifax might give mortgages to contractors based on a pro-rated day rate... |

There are also specialist contractor brokers, and I got a mortgage approval for a decent amount through one of them last year, they offered me way more than I could afford.
HSBC don't understand contractors completely but they have offered me a reasonable amount of lending (I make about half what you do, but then I choose to live elsewhere). HSBC seem to have about the best rates at the moment.
