What is a Complex Mortgage?

A complex mortgage is financing designed for borrowers with non-standard financial situations or unique requirements. This might include irregular income, multiple income sources, foreign assets, or purchasing unique property types. These cases often require customised solutions and expert negotiation with lenders.

At Enness, we specialise in securing high-value and complex mortgages, working closely with private banks and specialist lenders. Our expertise has enabled us to arrange multi-million-pound mortgages with loan-to-value (LTV) ratios of up to 85%—and sometimes higher in exceptional cases. With strong relationships across the financial sector, we ensure our clients get the best terms, even for the most challenging scenarios.

Complex Income Mortgage FAQs

What is Complex Income?

Complex income refers to earnings that do not follow a traditional structure, making it more challenging for lenders to assess when applying for a mortgage. This can include variable income streams such as bonuses, dividends, freelance earnings, investment returns, or income from multiple business ventures. For high-net-worth individuals, complex income often reflects diverse and sophisticated financial arrangements. While traditional lenders may find it difficult to evaluate this type of income, specialist mortgage providers can offer solutions suited to these unique financial circumstances.

How Do You Work With Unconventional Mortgage Lenders?

Enness works with unconventional mortgage lenders to help clients secure financing when traditional lenders can’t accommodate unique circumstances. These lenders offer flexibility for cases involving complex income, unusual property types, or international requirements.

  • Understanding Your Profile: We take time to understand your financial situation and objectives.
  • Accessing Specialist Lenders: We connect you with lenders who specialise in bespoke financing.
  • Negotiating Optimal Terms: We present your case to secure competitive rates and terms.
  • Simplifying Complex Cases: From irregular income to challenging credit histories, we handle the details.

Our approach ensures you have access to custom solutions and seamless support throughout the process.

What is a Foreign Currency Mortgage?

Foreign currency mortgages can be taken out on both overseas and UK property allowing you to take out a loan in whichever currency is appropriate. 

In the case of a UK property purchase, a foreign currency mortgage will be converted into sterling, but the value of the debt will be in the foreign currency as will the interest paid. As standard, the mortgage is paid in monthly instalments, converted into your foreign currency at current foreign exchange (FX) rates.

A large proportion of our client base are overseas investors whose income is in a foreign currency so having access to foreign currency mortgages is an area in which we can add value to their transactions.

How Can Remortgaging Benefit High Net Worth Individuals?

High net worth individuals tend to remortgage property assets as a means of raising capital for new ventures and new investments.

The best remortgage advice will take in an array of issues such as affordability, outstanding mortgage, income, and property valuations.

By utilising Enness contacts with high street banks, private banks, non standard mortgage lenders and other niche lenders, there are few scenarios in which our brokers are not able to offer detailed remortgage advice.

How Can You Finance a Second Home or Overseas Property?

While many of our higher net worth clients have ambitions to build large property portfolios, there is also significant interest in second homes.

These additional properties tend to be a significant distance from their main abode and are often overseas.

So, whether you are looking for a country retreat for the family, overseas holiday home or a pied-à-terre in the city we can certainly assist you in structuring the right mortgage finance for you.

What is a Second Charge Mortgage and How Can It Benefit You?

A second charge mortgage means that as well as the initial mortgage charge on your property, there is a secondary charge which is covered by the equity in your property.

There are several reasons why you may look to secure a second mortgage using a second charge such as:

  • Consolidating existing debt
  • Expanding a buy to let portfolio
  • Cash flow for business

We have experts right across the financial spectrum with specific experience in arranging second charge mortgages.
