I am currently earning around £65k (including bonus) per year.
I have a mortgage with my husband but things have been slightly rocky lately and I am just wanting to ensure I know where I stand financially should the worst happen and we break up.
... I'm also 36 weeks pregnant!
Does anybody know how obtaining a mortgage would work whilst on maternity leave? I intend to go back to work 4 days a week so obviously would be earning closer to 50k.
But would they lend to me whilst on maternity leave or would I need to wait until I was back working?
(I know the obvious answer is to speak to a mortgage adviser but with the relationship situation atm it seems too formal and premature so just wondering if others can provide any experience)
