Any mortgage advisers on the forum?

There seems to be all professions here - was wondering if there's any MA's on here I could ask a cheeky question of

Ta

my old man is an independent financial adviser.
He's helped out a couple of forum types with mortgage stuff

lovely job - I'll drop you a PM if that's ok

Yeah, that's fine.
He's happy to give some free no obligation advice on most issues, if you then go on to make whatever arrangements you decide on through him that's up to you.

You've decided to push the upgrade a little further??

Wayno - ask Damo or Nick, apparently they have a good guy.

Old bump...

Any mortgage people about?

Before going to get official advice I wouldn't mind some unofficial internet style advice on mortgages...

Up until November 2014 I was paid simply by PAYE, I then got given a stake in my business meaning I moved to partial PAYE and some dividend (PAYE 50%), then in July I got given a bigger stake in the business, and we change payments again, so I am now about 10% PAYE and 90% dividend. We are looking to move in the new year

So my two questions are;

1. Is this little bit messy situation going to mean I can't get another mortgage easily?
   
2. with dividends going forward I have a choice of taking them regularly, with an occasional top-up when there is extra profit about or to just take much larger chunks every 5 months of so, will it matter for mortgages which one I do? To me it feels like a regular income is a good thing to show...
