To pass the affordability check, each applicants gross annual basic income (including benefits and pensions) must be at least 30 times the monthly rental amount (36 times for Ellinson properties). EG If the rent is £500 PCM, applicants would need to earn £15,000 as an annual pension or basic salary (excluding commission/bonus) before tax or other deductions were made.
Each applicants affordability is assessed individually against the criteria.
Self-employed applicants will require an accountants reference and should have accounts for a minimum of two years. Net profit will be assessed against the affordability requirement of 30 times the monthly rental amount.
Employment checks to confirm your start date, salary and if your position is permanent.
Homeownership checks (only if you are a homeowner) confirming your mortgage payments are up to date.
