On a mid-range Priory Quarter property at £725,000 with a 10 percent deposit of £72,500, you would need a mortgage of £652,500. At current rates, monthly repayments on a 25-year repayment mortgage sit between approximately £217 and £271 depending on the rate secured.

Many Priory Quarter buyers are London commuters with income structures that high street banks handle poorly: annual bonuses that banks halve or ignore, contractor day rates that banks refuse to annualise, self-employed profits that banks average downward, and company director dividends that banks assess at face value rather than their true earning capacity. We work with specialist lenders who assess each income type at its maximum value. For Priory Quarter buyers, this specialist assessment regularly adds £30,000 to £80,000 to the borrowing available compared to walking into a bank branch.
