How we're helping one couple relocate to Cornwall

March 10, 2025

Relocating? This story from one of our mortgage advisers might interest you.

I’ve recently been working with a lovely young couple who are relocating to Cornwall. They’ve been searching for new jobs and the perfect house for some time, but they were stressed out. 


Why? They had spoken to their bank and were told that they couldn’t apply for a mortgage until they had been in their new jobs for 3 months. This didn’t work for them, they couldn’t move until they had a mortgage, but they couldn’t get a mortgage until they had a job in Cornwall. So what now?


Enter Motion Mortgages. The couple quickly calmed down when I explained that I could connect

them with lenders that can use their new employment contracts as evidence of income, before they have even started. Phew!


They have now both found work and they've had an offer accepted on a property, so we submitted their mortgage application this week which is moving along nicely.


The moral of the story? Don’t give up if you’ve been told no. Talk to Motion Mortgages and we’ll do everything we can to help. We look forward to supporting our Cornwall-bound couple throughout the rest of their journey.
