Introduction

A business owner running a limited company wanted to remortgage their home while consolidating personal debt from property renovations.

Their goal? Reduce monthly outgoings by merging unsecured commitments with their mortgage. However, their financial complexity made securing the right mortgage a challenge. After researching and reading positive reviews, they turned to Connely Roberts Mortgage Services for expert guidance to secure a mortgage reflecting their business’s true financial strength.

 

The Challenge

The biggest hurdle? A temporary dip in profits due to business reinvestment. While positioning the business for future growth, this made lenders hesitant. Most averaged the last two years’ profits, significantly reducing borrowing potential.

Previous brokers focused solely on taxable income, leading to unsuitable mortgage options. Additionally, the client faced high credit utilisation and an unfavourable debt-to-income ratio, leaving them stuck on a high standard variable rate while managing multiple debts.

Our Solution

At Connely Roberts Mortgage Services, we took a tailored approach, thoroughly reviewing the client’s financial documents.

  • Identified the right lenders: We sourced lenders who considered business rather than just personal income.
  • Pre-approval first: Engaged with lenders upfront to secure pre-approval, minimising risk.
  • Strategic income assessment: Worked with a lender recognising reinvestment as a growth strategy, considering the latest year’s pre-tax earnings and director’s salary.
  • Proactive preparation: Guided the client in preparing documentation in advance for a smooth process.

The Journey

From consultation to mortgage offer, the process took just over three weeks—an impressive turnaround given the complexities.

Leveraging strong lender relationships, we minimised delays and kept the client informed. Our direct access to decision-makers ensured clear communication and avoided unnecessary back-and-forth.

Unlike previous brokers who applied rigid income calculations, our strategic approach made all the difference.

 

The Result

The client successfully remortgaged their home and consolidated their debts into a single, lower monthly payment, significantly easing financial pressure. This restructuring provided financial stability, allowing them to focus on business growth without high monthly outgoings.

"Billy is a rare find—highly competent and efficient. I have dealt with many mortgage advisors and would confidently say Billy is the best I have used."
