Economic Crime (Transparency and Enforcement) Act 2022 (ECTEA) Where the property is owned by a corporate entity, the Borrower(s), as a condition precedent to the completion of the relevant facility, will be required to demonstrate full compliance with the obligations established under the ECTEA, including evidence of all necessary registrations on the Overseas Entities Register
Affordability assessment Affordability is based initially on validated personal income and not solely rental income coverage. Net worth will also be considered and must be greater than the aggregate of the total loans extended plus 24 months debt servicing costs. Net worth can be based on a self-declaration but subject to verification
Debt servicing assessment The credit underwriting in relation to debt servicing by the borrower will consider not just the rental income (if any) from the secured property but also the wider income/wealth of the borrower or in the case of corporate ownership, the beneficial owner(s). An appropriate income to debt servicing multiple in keeping with our risk appetite will be required to be maintained during the life of the loan

 

All lending is subject to status and our lending criteria.

YOUR HOME MAY BE AT RISK IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE.
