Last week I found a great place and everything was fine until I was asked about my income. As I have no single regular employer I was unable to provide official proof of my future work and therefore lost the property.
i can show them bank statements but that will not show my future work. as a musician work can be sporadic and some weeks i will make a lot, others i will make very little but it all usually balances out. however, i cannot prove my future income to an estate agent. do i need to speak to an accountant?
Thanks for all the replies. I have no tax returns as I have just finished university and have only recently registered for tax. And my application was refused even with a guarantor.

Can any UK Estate Agents tell me what their general day is like? Do you have to go into the office every day? How much viewing in a day do you usually do? What are the pay and benefits like? (Please no smart answers)

In the UK there are loads of Estate Agent’s websites where you can browse properties without making any commitment, but when I start looking for American Realtor sites it seems you often have to register and give them all kinds of details. We’re not thinking about relocating for another 3-5 years and I just want to get an impression of what kind of property we might be able to afford!!

My fiancee and i both work full time but still live at home with our parents as we can’t get a mortgage….We earn £30k pa between us but the banks etc will only lend us 3x our yearly income….this means we can only borrow £90k aslong as we put a deposit down…this is all well and good but we have scowered through papers,estate agents etc for months now and cannot find anything…..the most you can get is a 1bed flat on a rough council estate…its ridiculous…i mean £90k is a huge amount of money to us….why is the market like this and what can we do to improve our chances of lending more therefore buying a house…moving further away is not an option due to work and family commitments
