Lending tailored to your wider wealth. For high net worth individuals whose assets, investments and non-standard income call for a mortgage assessed on the whole picture, not a standard affordability test.
High net worth mortgages – typically defined as residential borrowing of £1 million or more – require specialist advice, with underwriting based on overall wealth, assets, and income complexity rather than standard affordability models.
When purchasing or refinancing a property valued at over £1 million, standard high-street lending solutions may not always meet the sophistication your circumstances demand. At this level, mortgage underwriting shifts from automated affordability models to a relationship-led, bespoke process — one that considers your full financial picture rather than simply applying an income multiple.
This bespoke approach may provide access to features that are not commonly available through standard residential mortgage products, subject to lender criteria. Interest-only and part-repayment structures become available for clients with a clear capital repayment strategy.
These lending solutions are designed for individuals who sit outside the parameters that mainstream lenders are built to serve. That typically includes business owners, entrepreneurs, senior executives, and investors whose income structures — dividends, bonuses, retained profits, carried interest, or international earnings — do not translate neatly onto a standard payslip. It also encompasses buyers and homeowners in prime markets such as London, the South East, and high-value regional locations who are purchasing or refinancing homes at the upper end of the market.
Complex income is one of the most common challenges for affluent borrowers approaching the mortgage market. If your earnings are derived from dividends, carried interest, offshore sources, or a combination of streams, Private Finance matches you with lenders experienced in assessing true earning potential rather than simply reviewing payslips. We prepare a comprehensive financial narrative on your behalf, so that your income is presented in a way that supports the strongest possible outcome.
For those seeking to maximise liquidity or manage borrowing in a tax-efficient manner, interest-only and hybrid repayment mortgages offer genuine flexibility. These structures are available through private and specialist lenders and can be tailored to align with expected liquidity events — such as business exits, investment maturities, or property sales. Where clients hold substantial equity in a prime property, remortgaging can unlock capital for reinvestment, business purposes, or further acquisitions.
Direct introductions to exclusive private banks offering bespoke rates, flexible terms, and integrated wealth services unavailable through standard retail channels.
Dividends, retained profits, carried interest, and offshore earnings assessed by lenders who understand your true earning potential beyond a payslip.
Flexible repayment models designed to preserve capital, manage cash flow, and align with your investment timeline, bonus cycle, or asset sale strategy.
Wealth and liquidity-led underwriting can unlock borrowing well beyond standard income-multiple calculations for suitably qualified applicants.
Once borrowing exceeds £1 million, the success of an application depends less on meeting standardised criteria and more on how your case is positioned. Private and specialist lenders conduct detailed reviews of your full financial profile — including assets, income diversity, property quality, location, and the long-term relationship potential your circumstances represent. They are not processing applications; they are making individual lending decisions, and the quality of your introduction matters accordingly.
As experienced advisers, we work to make every element of your application – from the structure of your income documentation to the narrative connecting your borrowing to your wider objectives – is prepared to the standard these lenders expect. We manage the process discreetly from initial consultation through to completion, maintaining direct relationships with senior decision-makers at leading private banks and specialist institutions that are not accessible through retail channels.
Our process begins with a detailed consultation to understand your property goals, income composition, asset base, and any cross-border or complex elements that require particular attention. From there, we identify the most appropriate lenders, negotiate bespoke terms, and manage the entire process on your behalf.
To help ensure your application achieves the most suitable available terms, we assist with the preparation of comprehensive financial summaries, liquidity and investment statements, and supporting documentation for any non-UK or offshore income structures. A well-prepared application may help support efficient processing and can assist lenders in fully assessing the borrower’s circumstances.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
A relaxed conversation to find out about you and what you need. We conduct a thorough fact-find to ensure we are best placed to understand your needs.
We complete full affordability and criteria checks on all client enquiries. This helps align your proposal with lender criteria and may improve the likelihood of a successful application.
Mortgage applications are complex and time-consuming, so our brokers will handle the whole process on your behalf, keeping you updated throughout.
Our service doesn’t end here. We'll be on hand to review the options available and help identify a suitable solution when your current deal expires.
The amount you can borrow will depend on factors such as your income, monthly commitments, credit history, deposit size, and overall affordability.
While many lenders use income multiples as a guide, each lender assesses applications differently. Our mortgage calculators can give you an initial estimate, and our brokers can help you understand what may realistically be available based on your individual circumstances.
A Decision in Principle (DIP) gives you an indication of how much you may be able to borrow before you start viewing properties. It can strengthen your position when making an offer, show estate agents and sellers that you’re a serious buyer, and help you search with greater confidence and clarity around your budget.
Whatever your situation, our premier mortgage team can advise on suitable solutions. We specialise in complex and bespoke mortgage solutions to help you find competitive terms.
