Arranging a self-certified mortgage

A self certification mortgage is generally used by someone who receives an irregular mortgage or has a hard time proving exactly how much their income is. People such as the self-employed, those in the entertainment industry and arts-based professions often choose to take out a self employed mortgage. Self employed home loans are more difficult to achieve than conventional ones: accountants may want to reduce the amount of profit the applicant is seen to have made, in order to reduce tax, but the applicant may want to show greater profits in order to achieve a larger profits.
