The Voice of Camden Community

I'm a freelance documentary producer and had been told by two banks I couldn't get a mortgage. Mortgage International found a lender who used two years of accounts and we bought our Kentish Town flat in eight weeks.

Bought a two-bed near the Roundhouse with my partner — we're both in advertising so our income looked complex. The team packaged our application brilliantly and we got an offer first time.
