Can we get a mortgage?

Wondering if there's anyone that can help answer this question for me - I'm currently on mat leave, due back at work in Oct but I'm pregnant again and due in Dec. Likely not going to go back between mat leave 1 & 2 as have annual leave to take and will start mat leave 2 early. My OH is in full time employment.

How likely are we to get a mortgage based on our circumstances?

TIA

Might be worth your speaking to a good mortgage broker as they tend to know how particular lenders treat maternity leaves. It may also depend on if you are off on full pay or on just about nothing.

If your husband's salary is enough x 3 or x 4 to cover the mortgage amount you could be okay.
