Freelancer Financials offers tailored mortgage solutions for all contract workers planning to move home. We can secure the best contractor mortgage available to you as a home-mover, based on your contract rate alone. We streamline the mortgage process for you, making the most of your gross annualised contract income to enhance affordability.
Contractors often face unique obstacles when moving home, particularly with traditional high-street lenders. Standard lending criteria can undervalue your earning potential by focusing too much on accounts, payslips, or SA302s.
This can lead to rejected applications and missed opportunities. At Freelancer Financials, we specialise in contractor mortgages, ensuring your income is assessed fairly, whether you work under an umbrella company, limited company, or any other self-employment structure.

Mortgage repayment history alone may not be enough
Moving home is a big step. You’ve not only got to worry about furnishing your new home, you have to defurnish your current home.
The last thing you need is to have to worry about a new mortgage, too. And, if you didn’t use a specialist broker before, you know the hoops you had to jump through, then.
You may think that your mortgage payment history will be enough to get a good homemover mortgage this time. But you’re faced with the same problem: relying on an adviser to understand contract income. Through us, you can be sure you’ll get a specialist underwriter who understands contracting as well as we do.
A mortgage broker that gets you
You deserve a broker who understands your unique needs. We don’t only understand contractors. We’ve helped lenders develop contractor-friendly lending criteria, too.
Together with our hand-picked lenders, we can make your homeownership dreams a reality. No matter how you’re paid, we’ll ensure lenders see what you can truly afford with your income.
When you work with us, you’ll enjoy a simple process tailored to your circumstances. Our support will help you bypass lenders’ gatekeepers, giving you access to specialist underwriters. This can make all the difference in your search for your dream home.

I needed to get a mortgage, but my situation wasn’t straightforward. I had been receiving a salary from my company for about seven years, but I didn’t have a formal contract in place. When I decided to apply for a mortgage, I arranged a proper contract with a strong day rate and needed a lender who would assess me on that basis. Before contacting Freelancer Financials, I tried another broker, but they were unable to secure anything for me. When I reached out to Freelancer Financials, the difference was immediate. They understood my situation straight away and explained that there were options available. They knew exactly how to position my income and circumstances in a way that fairly reflected my ability to afford and sustain a mortgage. The process was very smooth and professional. I was given access to an easy-to-use portal where I could upload all my documents. They provided a clear list of what was needed, and although it took me about half a day to gather and upload everything, once I had done my part they moved incredibly fast. They contacted lenders right away, and within a week my mortgage was provisionally approved — and fully approved the very next day. Raj looked after me throughout the process, and he was excellent. His communication was fast, clear, and reassuring, and I always felt like I was in capable hands. I would absolutely recommend Freelancer Financials, and especially Raj, to anyone who is a contractor, freelancer, or business owner and needs a mortgage. They really understand non-standard income and know how to make it work.

Andrew Saunders really knows his stuff and found us a fantastic mortgage product. He explained everything fully and then guided us through the whole process and even now, 6 years on from taking on the mortgage he recommended, he always advises us of the best deals going forward.

As first time buyers, navigating the whole process seemed ominous, but Archie helped make it as smooth as possible. He took time to explain all the details clearly, was prompt in replying to questions quickly and was always on hand for a phone call. He was enourmously patient and professional throughout, his knowledge and understanding helped secure us a deal that suited our needs perfectly. Couldnt recommend higher!

Updated 2025 review - Yet again Natasha & Natalie have sorted out my mortgage renewal. I started with them back in 2017 when I was a contractor but now I'm a full time employee. Another painless renewal. Highly recommend!
