Why This Matters

Many directors take a low PAYE salary and draw income as dividends for tax efficiency. If a lender only uses your salary, your borrowing capacity can be severely limited. By using the right lender and the right income calculation, we can often significantly increase the amount you can borrow.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much more can I borrow?
It depends on your income structure, but using salary plus dividends or share of net profit can often double or triple your borrowing capacity compared to a lender who only uses PAYE salary.
Do I need my accountant to provide anything?
Typically we'll need your SA302 / tax calculations and company accounts. Some lenders also accept an accountant's certificate confirming your income.
