As a professional, your career is built on expertise—and at Empire Mortgages, so is ours. We understand that professionals often have unique financial situations, from irregular income to complex pay structures. That’s why we offer specialist mortgage advice for professionals to help you secure the right deal, with terms tailored to your career and earning potential.
With access to whole-of-market mortgage products and specialist lenders, we help doctors, dentists, accountants, solicitors, company directors, and many other professionals secure the best mortgage deal based on their individual circumstances.
Not all mortgage lenders fully understand the financial lives of professionals, which can make getting the right mortgage unnecessarily complicated. That’s where we come in.
Here’s why many professionals benefit from specialist mortgage advice:
Complex Income Structures – Bonuses, overtime, profit shares, dividends, and contracts aren’t always straightforward to lenders.
Fluctuating Earnings – Especially common for self-employed professionals, contractors, and those paid in commissions.
Higher Borrowing Potential – Lenders often underestimate your future earning potential—particularly early in your career.
Career Growth Consideration – Many professional mortgage lenders offer preferential terms or flexibility, recognising your long-term earning prospects.
We work with lenders who truly understand your profession and can assess your situation accurately.
With over 60 years’ combined experience in financial services, you’ll benefit from:
Independent, Whole-of-Market Advice – Not tied to any one lender, so you get genuinely unbiased recommendations.
Specialist Expertise in Professional Mortgages – We know which lenders work best for different professions.
Personalised Service – One dedicated adviser from start to finish.
Hassle-Free, No-Jargon Approach – We take care of the admin, paperwork, and negotiation.
We’re proud to help professionals throughout Dunfermline and across Scotland.
Here’s how we make the mortgage process easier for professionals:
Whole of Market Search – Access to thousands of products across the entire mortgage market.
Specialist Lender Access – Including lenders that specifically cater to professionals or those with complex incomes.
Tailored Affordability Assessments – Helping lenders understand your true borrowing potential.
Help With Paperwork – We make sure your income is presented clearly and accurately to lenders.
Flexible Appointments – Online, phone, or face-to-face—whenever suits you.
We handle the mortgage application process from start to finish, leaving you to focus on your career.
