About Saffron Building Society Mortgages

Saffron Building Society is an Essex-based mutual lender with a focus on flexible, manual underwriting for borrowers who don't fit standard criteria. They have developed particular expertise in contractor mortgages, using day rate income to assess affordability rather than applying restrictive salary multiples.

Saffron Building Society is an excellent choice for contractors, freelancers, and those with variable income who are often underserved by high-street lenders. Their approach to contract day-rate income can result in significantly higher borrowing capacity than applying direct to a major bank.
