Contractor Mortgages – Flexibility for Project-Based Income
For contractors, securing a mortgage can be challenging due to varying income streams and the nature of short-term or rolling contracts. However, contractor mortgages are designed to account for these factors, allowing contractors to access financing that fits their unique financial structure. At Credas Financial Services, we specialize in connecting contractors in fields like IT, construction, and consulting with lenders who understand the nuances of project-based income. By working with these experienced lenders, we ensure that you have access to flexible, competitive mortgage solutions that accommodate your specific employment setup and long-term goals.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer or looking to move, we guide you step-by-step, helping to identify lenders who recognize your earning potential and are willing to work with your income structure. With Credas, securing a mortgage is simpler and more suited to your contractor lifestyle.
Contractor Mortgage Solutions
Securing a mortgage as a contractor can be challenging due to project-based income, but there are options tailored to meet the unique needs of contractors. At Credas Financial Services, we work with lenders who specialize in contractor mortgages, ensuring that your income structure is considered fully and accurately. From day-rate calculations to short-term contracts, we guide you in finding a mortgage solution that accommodates the flexibility of your profession.
Day Rate Mortgages
For contractors on a day rate, many lenders calculate potential mortgage amounts by annualizing this rate, typically by multiplying it over a standard 48-week working year. This allows contractors to access mortgage deals based on their maximum earning potential, often without requiring years of income records. Credas Financial Services guides you through this process, ensuring your day rate is correctly represented to help secure favorable mortgage terms.
Short-Term Contracts Considered
We work with lenders who understand the realities of short-term and rolling contracts, ensuring that they evaluate your financial standing beyond a conventional employment model. Whether you’re on a six-month project or transitioning between contracts, we help find lenders who accommodate these situations and offer mortgage products tailored for contract workers.
WE ARE THE EXPERTS
Your Path to a Smooth Mortgage Journey
Securing your first mortgage may seem daunting, but with Credas Financial Services by your side, the process becomes clear and manageable. Here's how we simplify the journey for you:
Start with a Friendly Consultation
We take the time to understand your financial situation, future plans, and homeownership goals. This initial conversation helps us determine which mortgage options best align with your needs. Whether you’re looking for long-term stability, lower initial costs, or flexibility in payments, we provide tailored advice based on the latest market trends.
Get Pre-Approved
Pre-approval is a critical step in the mortgage process, providing you with a clear understanding of your borrowing capacity. With recent developments in the mortgage market, lenders have become more diligent in assessing affordability, especially considering rising living costs and interest rates. We help you navigate these assessments, ensuring you’re pre-approved for a mortgage that suits your budget and offers competitive rates. Having pre-approval also gives you confidence when negotiating with sellers, as it shows you’re a serious buyer with financing in place.
Choose the Right Mortgage for You
With access to a wide panel of lenders, we compare options to find the most competitive mortgage rates and terms. In light of recent market developments, lenders have introduced more flexible products to accommodate changing buyer needs, including low-deposit mortgages and deals tailored to buyers with unique circumstances. We evaluate your options, helping you choose the best mortgage, whether you’re looking for the lowest interest rate, the most favorable repayment terms, or additional perks such as cashback offers.
Navigate the Paperwork
The mortgage application process involves complex documentation, including income verification, affordability assessments, and legal paperwork. With new regulatory guidelines in place to protect borrowers, lenders require more detailed documentation, particularly for self-employed applicants or those with fluctuating incomes. We guide you through every step of the process, helping you gather the required documents and ensuring everything is completed accurately and on time.
Final Approval and Moving Day
Once your mortgage is approved, we assist with the final stages of the process, ensuring that all financial and legal requirements are met before completion. Recent market shifts have resulted in stricter timelines for mortgage offers, especially for new builds and shared ownership schemes, making it essential to stay on top of deadlines. We liaise with lenders and solicitors to ensure a smooth transition to completion, allowing you to focus on the excitement of moving into your new home.
