How to refinance and make your mortgage work harder

Lenders look at these details to see how much you can comfortably borrow and that your income is reliable enough to support your mortgage payments.

If you’re self-employed
Debts, assets & monthly obligations
This is used by lenders to calculate your debt and confirm you have enough assets and cash flow to comfortably manage your mortgage.
Down payment & closing funds
These documents provide proof of where the money is coming from for your down payment and closing fees.
