Or do you think your income is not enough to get on the property ladder? Well think again. We have access to lenders who recognise the difficulties that first time buyers face and can lend you much more than you may think. Their lending is based on your credit score and can be as much as 4.2 times your income if you are buying on your own or 3.6 times your joint income if you are buying with a partner. Alternatively, we have access to schemes where, with help from your parents using their income in the calculations, you can borrow much more than basing the figures just on your own income, but it is your own home.
