The wider assessment

The aim is to identify the questions and evidence that matter before making a commitment. A short outline is enough to begin; detailed records can follow through an agreed secure route.

Make the short history understandable

We review the arrival date, immigration status, current employment, previous overseas role, UK bank activity and deposit source. Where documents come from overseas, we identify possible translation or certification needs before a lender application is submitted.

A recent arrival does not create one universal lender rule. Visa route, nationality, income, deposit, time in role and property type can all change the available options.
