What Salary Do I Need to be Eligible for a £200,000 Mortgage?
As we've mentioned, each lender is different, so there isn't a fixed income you need to be approved for a mortgage of £200,000.
The difficulty is that, say you earn £35,000; to achieve this level of borrowing you'd need a loan of six times your income, which isn't impossible but is rare.
Below you'll find some indicative figures showing four theoretical lenders, and how your mortgage limit might be significantly different depending on what income multiple you qualify for.
