How much can I borrow?

How much can you borrow?

An Agreement In Principle (AIP also known as MIP or DIP) is a great way to find out how much you can borrow. You can use the quick form below or request a link to our portal where there is more detailed fact find (either option should take less than 15 minutes to fill in), we will then use our expert knowledge to research the lender who matches your requirements and obtain an AIP.

If you would like access to the online portal/ fact find, please head over to the online portal page

What you'll need:

Income - This will need to match the amounts shown on your proof of income documents e.g. payslips.
Outgoings - An accurate reflection of your financial commitments.
Addresses - For the last three years.
About 15 minutes - It shouldn't take much longer than that.

What we will do.

We will use your details to run affordability assessments across the mortgage market.
Use the information from the affordability assessments to decide on the best lenders to apply for the AIP with.
Apply for an AIP with a soft credit search with a specific lender.

What you'll get:

We'll let you know the maximum amount you can borrow over your maximum term, based on when you plan to retire (subject to full underwriting by the lender).
After you receive your AIP and are ready to apply for your full mortgage offer, we will meet you to discuss your needs further and provide you with a personalised recommendation.
