As a contractor, you have 2 options. Firstly you can either work off your limited company salary and dividend figures or net profit and salary depending on which bank you approach. The second option is to work off your daily rate. Lenders that are sympathetic to contractors will take your daily rate - multiply that by a 5 for a 5 day week and then multiply that by 48 to assume you give yourself 4 weeks off a year.
