Hi all,
Having finally found a house we want to buy my boyfriend and I are planning to apply for a mortgage.
We both have secure jobs and a combined income of approx 80k, solid savings of 30k. House will cost 175k and need another 30k to finish it off.
Only concern is that due to a sporting injury my boyfriend has been out on sick leave for nearly 2 months. He's just waiting for an operation on his foot before returning to his full time (very physical) work.
So the question is how will this effect our mortgage application? We've been keeping up regular savings, no missed bills and not relying on the credit card but obviously his weekly income has dropped significantly. Will the bank take on look at this and tell us to forget about it?
Thanks!
