Is your job stable?

Employment stability is one of the main things a mortgage lender evaluates, typically wanting to see a consistent work history over the past two years rather than frequent job changes or gaps, though a change within the same field or a pay increase is usually treated favorably. Self-employed buyers face additional documentation requirements to prove stable income over time. A lender can tell you exactly how your specific employment history will be viewed before you make an offer.
