Buying your own home

Buying your own home may be an option depending on an assessment of your income and savings and, where relevant, the income of your partner and any equity on a property to be sold.

The following formula is used to calculate how much of a mortgage you might be able to secure, whichever is the greater of:

3 x the greater salary plus 1 x the lower

or

2 1/4 x the sum of both salaries

We may not consider you for alternative accommodation if we believe you could purchase a property.

If you are looking for somewhere to buy follow the link below to information about local estate agents.
