Accountants can be required if you are applying for a mortgage or remortgage and are self employed. Mortgage lenders will in some cases require proof of income during the application.
There are mortgages where there will be no prooof of income required and the applicant is able to self certify their income. This type of mortgage may require an accountant to verify that the projected income is realistic.
A mortgage broker or lender will likely ask you about your accountant when they come to progress your application.
The details about your accountant that may be required are-
name
address
telephone number
fax
email
and any other details that will help them get in touch and progress the application.
