Self employed mortgage

Hi all, wondering if any of you are happy to share the net profit + salary you disclosed when applying for your mortgage and how much you were approved for? Will be putting application in shortly and suppose I’m just looking for some anecdotal reassurance! Thanks

If you're a sole trader, banks will take an average of three years' net profit and use it as your income. You should be able to get 3.5 x that figure provided that you can show evidence of being able to pay the repayment for the past 6 - 12 months in rent + savings.
