EXCELLENT Based on 51 reviews Posted on Google Sam BannonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had an excellent experience with Lyndsey Rowe at West Wales Money. From the very beginning, Lyndsey has been clear, professional, responsive and extremely reassuring throughout what can otherwise be quite a stressful process. His advice has been invaluable, and he has made everything feel straightforward and seamless from our side. He has guided us carefully through the mortgage application process, kept us informed at each stage, and helped us secure our mortgage offer with confidence. We are very grateful for all of Lyndsey’s help so far and would be very happy to recommend him to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy and supportive mortgage advice.Posted on Google Liam DixTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Lyndsey and his team at West Wales Money enough. Myself and my partner are both first time buyers and we did not understand the process fully. He made the process clear with constant communication and updated us regular through every step of the process. We will definitely be using him again when we are due for our renewal.Posted on Google Sally EdwardsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Most lenders assess company director income incorrectly — often reducing your borrowing by tens of thousands.
❌ Only salary is used
❌ Dividends are not fully recognised
❌ Retained profits ignored
❌ Income assessed too conservatively
❌ Automated decisions miss your true affordability
This is why many company directors are declined —or approved for significantly less than they should be.
The issue isn’t your income — it’s how lenders assess it.
With the right lender and approach, your full income can be used — unlocking the borrowing you should have access to.
If your borrowing feels lower than it should be — you’re not alone. Many company directors experience this.
Many company directors using dividends are told:
❌ Only your salary can be used
❌ Dividends aren’t fully recognised
❌ Your income doesn’t meet affordability
❌ You can’t borrow as much as expected
👉 Even when your business is performing well — which can be frustrating when you know you should be able to borrow more.
Dividend income is often assessed incorrectly — especially by high street lenders.
👉 It’s not just what you earn
👉 It’s how your dividends are interpreted
👉 Your borrowing may be restricted unnecessarily — or reduced without clear explanation
👉 You could be declined when you shouldn’t be
With the right lender and approach:
✔ Your full income can be considered
✔ Your borrowing can increase — sometimes significantly
✔ You can move forward with confidence
If this sounds familiar, the next step is simply to see what’s actually possible for you.
Here’s how I get you approved:
So lenders assess your full affordability — not just part of your income
So you’re not restricted by lenders who don’t understand company directors
So underwriters understand your situation first time — avoiding delays or declines
Focusing on what you could achieve — not what lenders try to limit
This approach is why many clients are approved — even after being declined elsewhere.

A company director was declined by their bank despite strong business performance.
The lender only used salary — ignoring dividends and retained profits.
👉 By restructuring their income and using the right lender: Approved after being declined
A director was told they could borrow far less than expected.
Their income included dividends — but these weren’t fully recognised.
👉 By using a lender that correctly assessed dividend income: Borrowing increased significantly
A company director had strong profits but low salary.
Most lenders restricted borrowing based on salary alone.
👉 By using dividends and retained profits correctly: Maximum borrowing unlocked

Some lenders may consider retained profits, alongside salary and dividends, when assessing mortgage affordability for company directors. Lending criteria and eligibility are subject to individual lender policies and underwriting.
