What this broker covers
From the areas recorded here.
My Financial Services works across self-employed, buy-to-let and residential from Watford — a focused listing led by self-employed work.
Self-employed and buy-to-let together suit business owners buying property, where income evidence and rental stress testing both have to line up.
Self-Employed
Self-employed cases turn on how a lender reads your income. Some average two or three years of accounts, some use your latest year, and sole traders, limited-company directors and day-rate contractors are all assessed differently. A firm that does this regularly knows which lenders sit where.

Buy-to-let borrowing is capped by a rental stress test rather than by your salary, and the sums differ sharply between personal ownership and a limited company. Portfolio landlords with four or more mortgaged properties face extra underwriting. With self-employed lending also covered, business-owner landlords should find both halves of the case understood.
Read the buy-to-let guideResidential
Standard residential advice covers buying, moving and remortgaging on your own home — the bulk of UK mortgage lending, and the area where switching deal at the right moment usually saves the most. Paired with self-employed lending, it should cover employed and variable-income applicants equally.

Fee-free to you
Fee-free means the lender pays this firm a procuration fee on completion, so the advice costs you nothing directly. You still pay any lender product fee, valuation and legal costs. Buy-to-let and limited-company cases are often charged differently from residential ones — ask which bracket you fall into.

Frequently asked questions
What does My Financial Services charge for mortgage advice?
My Financial Services is listed on MortgageMatch as fee-free, meaning the broker is paid commission by the lender rather than charging you for advice. You would still pay any lender product fee, valuation and legal costs. Buy-to-let and limited-company cases are often charged differently from residential ones — ask which bracket you fall into.
What types of mortgage does My Financial Services handle?
My Financial Services records self-employed, buy-to-let and residential, working from Watford. Ask anyway if your case sits outside that list.
Does My Financial Services work with self-employed borrowers?
Yes — self-employed lending is one of the areas My Financial Services lists. Have your last two to three years of accounts or SA302s and corresponding tax year overviews ready. The figure you can borrow depends heavily on which lender is used, because they treat retained profit, dividends and contract income very differently.
Does My Financial Services only cover Watford?
My Financial Services is listed in Watford, but UK brokers are not restricted to their own area and most advise nationally by phone or video. You can also compare other mortgage brokers in Watford on MortgageMatch.
MortgageMatch is a directory, not a broker. We do not give advice. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments.
