  • Sponsor income - minimum £40,000
  • Applicant income - £20,000, unless they're a student (no minimum)
  • Maximum borrowing of £1,500,000
  • Minimum age - applicant must be at least 18
  • Maximum age for sponsor - 80 years old at the end of the term on repayment or 75 on interest only and part and part

When assessing applications, we consider the level of debts the customer(s) is committed to relative to their income, how much they've paid off and the credit they have left available. We'll exclude student debt from our assessment.

This calculator provides an indication only. It’s not a legally binding mortgage Offer and places Bank of Ireland UK at no obligation to provide your customer with a mortgage. All applications must meet our lending criteria and are subject to assessment. The amount your client could borrow may be less once this assessment has been made.
