How to obtain a 100k mortgage, putting 300k down when I am from the UK and cant easily prove income?

Profile picture for Robert Egan
I am from the UK and want to purchase a home here. My wife is American but has been out of the country for 10 years. So we have little history. In the UK I have an excellent credit rating but being self employed for the last couple of years makes it hard to prove income. As we only want to borrow 25% of the house value i thought this would be OK but conventional lenders wont consider us. Is there a specialist broker who could help?

Are you currently self employed?  If so how long have you been currently active in this business here in the US?

I'd encourage you to phone a local lender that has experience with out of area buyers.  Try calling Mike Fuller of Northern AZ Mortgage at 928-634-4251
