Self certification mortgages

A Self Certification mortgage is a 'non-standard' mortgage which allows you to declare how much money you earn from employment without having to give proof of your earnings. So if you're self-employed, on a commission based on income, undertake seasonal work or your income is irregular, we'll still find a mortgage suitable for you.

More about Self Certification mortgages

Self certification mortgages are designed for self employed people or those on commission based incomes who may struggle to provide the standard proof of income most mortgage lenders require when assessing a mortgage application. This type of mortgage allows applicants to declare how much money they earn from employment without having to provide proof of earnings.

At this moment in time the Cheshire is not offering any self certification products but when we do this page will be updated to reflect this change in policy.
