Are you planning to apply for a mortgage for your first home? Here's some key information to keep in mind:

🔵 Rate Types: Understand the differences between fixed rate and variable rate mortgages. Fixed rates offer stability but limit flexibility should market rates change. Variable rates are more flexible and can potentially save money if rates go down, but they can also increase if rates go up.

🔵 Income: Your salary structure impacts the lenders willing to work with you and how much they're willing to lend. This includes considering any bonuses or overtime pay.

🔵 Outgoings: Your monthly expenses and total debt factor into your affordability and lenders' debt-to-income ratio calculations.

🔵 Credit Score: A strong credit score and history are beneficial, but even with a low score, regular and on-time bill payments can keep you in the running.

🔵 Employment History: A stable employment history in your current industry helps assure lenders of your ability to make payments.

🔵 Deposit: The size of your deposit can impact the available lenders, the mortgage rates, and even your ability to secure a mortgage.

Remember, it's not just about finding the best deal in the market, but also understanding your circumstances, lenders' criteria, and making an informed choice.
