Wealth, Not Payslips: Two Private Bank Mortgages

What if your income comes from an art portfolio or private equity, not a monthly salary?

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
The story

How we got it done.

01 · The goal

What they wanted

To refinance existing borrowing that was coming to the end of its term, on flexible terms with no early repayment penalties.

02 · The challenge

Why it was complex

One client's wealth sits largely in the value of an art portfolio. The other is repaid from private equity "carried interest", which is irregular and paid on future fund performance. Neither fits a standard affordability calculator, and credit score alone tells a lender very little.

03 · The solution

How we structured it

We introduced both clients to a private bank and worked alongside the bank to evidence their overall wealth and future income in a way it could lend against. Both cases were on interest-only trackers.

04 · The result

The outcome

Both refinanced on very competitive terms, with full flexibility to overpay or repay early.

“For clients like these, overall wealth matters more than a credit score. The skill is evidencing it in a way the bank can lend on.”
Josh Halsey, Founder and Director

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

Interest-only: you need a credible repayment plan. Tracker rates can go up.
