A mortgage is the name given to a loan secured on your home.  On average a mortgage runs for around 25 years but it is becoming more frequent for existing home owners to consider a new mortgage, perhaps to buy a second home or to raise additional capital for home improvements or other purposes such as an unexpected burden, a holiday home or other investment.

A mortgage is a long-term loan investment and the investors circumstances dictate the amount and term of the mortgage.

The amount that you can borrow is related to the value of the property and your income. There are various types of mortgage arrangement for paying back the loan and different interest rates available.

The amount you can borrow is also related to you occupation/source of income, for self employed people additional information is provided. For people with none standard income self certification may be appropriate.

Remember, the amount you can borrow is determined by your income (i.e. ability to pay the mortgage payments) and the loan to value (The ratio of the mortgage to purchase price of the property).
