Entrepreneur

Buying a house as an entrepreneur can sometimes seem a bit more complicated than when you are employed.However, there are often more possibilities than you think. With the right preparation and insight into your figures, you can often simply secure a mortgage as an entrepreneur.

Mortgages for entrepreneurs

As an entrepreneur, you can also apply for a mortgage. The most important thing is that your income is sufficiently stable and that you can demonstrate this with financial documents such as annual figures, tax returns, and profit and loss statements. Additionally, the development of your business can play a role. For entrepreneurs, the average income of the last three years is often used to determine the maximum mortgage.

Good
to know

Read here what you should take in account as an entrepreneur during a mortgage application.

Most lenders require at least three years of financial statements. This allows them to properly assess your income. In some situations, there are options available with fewer years of figures. This depends on the lender and your financial situation.

There are no separate mortgage products specifically for entrepreneurs. However, there are lenders who are more flexible regarding entrepreneurial income. As a result, there are often multiple options available.

The average income of the past three years is often taken into account. Factors such as profit figures and tax returns are included in this calculation. Sometimes, the most recent year is weighted more heavily. This creates a realistic picture of your income.

It was a true pleasure working with Samuel while arranging my mortgage.

He was always available whenever I needed support or advice, and responded lightning fast! He was friendly, kind, patient, and incredibly professional throughout the entire process. It gave me great confidence to know that he was guiding me through this important event in my life: the purchase of my first home.

Highly recommended!

From the very beginning, we received excellent help from Matthijs. Applying for a mortgage is a huge undertaking for first-time buyers, but Matthijs patiently guided us through the process. Communication is direct, his knowledge is extensive, and we even had a laugh. Thanks Matthijs, we will definitely be back!

We received incredibly helpful assistance from Matthijs with the purchase of our house.

My girlfriend and I are both entrepreneurs, which meant that many documents had to be submitted during the process. We were guided excellently throughout, and everything was clearly explained. Communication was pleasant and prompt, making the entire process surprisingly smooth. Highly recommended!
