Freelance workers are becoming increasingly drawn to self certification mortgages according to the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders' (IMLA) Association.
The mortgage, that doesn't require consumers to produce pay slips or other proof of income suits freelance workers with fluctuating incomes.
The Guardian recently reported that the self certification market has gone from strength to strength in recent times, with more competitive deals coming out all the time.
A spokesperson for the IMLA commented: "Not only the self-employed but people who have several jobs, people who do lots of freelance work. All people like that find these products very useful."
