Too big

Need £1,962,000 · max on income £247,500

  • Loan needed (£1,962,000) exceeds the 4.5× income cap of £247,500
  • Monthly all-in (£12,233) breaches your 35% repayment cap of £1,604
  • Upfront cash needed (£399,869) leaves little for reserves — plan for surveys, SDLT and fees

UK lenders typically cap borrowing at 4.5× total income and want repayments under ~35–40% of gross pay. Actual offers depend on credit, outgoings, and product — always get an Agreement in Principle.
