7 Factors That Can Help You Get Approved For A Mortgage

July 5, 2021

Getting a mortgage can be a challenge in 2021. You want to find a mortgage with the best possible rates to have an affordable monthly repayment. Many elements go into receiving a good mortgage offer, and there are plenty of ways to improve your chances.

You should look carefully into the ways you can get approved for a mortgage. It may take some work over months or even years, but the benefits will be well worth the effort.

Have A Good Credit Score

Ensure that your credit score is strong. The lower your credit score, the higher your repayments on a mortgage are likely to be. Improve your credit score by paying your bills on time, taking on realistic debt levels, and keeping your bank account with the same lender for multiple years.

Keep Your Debt Low

Only take on affordable debt. Ideally, pay off all your debts before applying for a loan. Lenders will see the debts you have when they run a credit check, and high debts will mean you might be rejected or receive an offer of a mortgage with high-interest rates.

Save Up A Good Down Payment

Save as much as you can for a down payment. Typically, down payments of 10-20% are ideal. Consider putting off your purchase if you don’t have a lot of savings for a down payment. Reduce unnecessary expenditure to help you save more.

See If Your Job Can Help

Some jobs enable you to get better mortgage options. If you work as a teacher or first responder, you could get a better deal on a mortgage. Research the options available to you based on your job. Take a look at this information on loans for people working as a first responder for more details.

Consider Budget Homes

Consider being economical with your choice of property. The lower the cost of the property, the more likely you are to have your mortgage accepted. Go to auctions to find low-cost properties or consider an apartment instead of a house.

Maintain A Good Work Track Record

If possible, remain at your current employer as long as possible. You will have to provide your work history to a lender when applying for a mortgage, and showing that the same employer has employed you for multiple years can be a significant advantage. If you have moved jobs frequently, ensure you can explain why.

Buy With A Partner

Buying with someone else can significantly improve your chances of being accepted for a mortgage. Two sets of income can make you seem like a much better risk for lenders.
