  • Monthly all-in (£2,831) breaches your 35% repayment cap of £1,604
  • Upfront cash needed (£70,052) 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.
