Theatre Professional

Working in the theatre industry means no two careers or income structures are the same. Whether you’re performing in The Devil Wears Prada, directing regional productions, or freelancing across shows, your income may come from short-term contracts, renewable gigs, or multiple sources.

Unfortunately, many lenders don’t understand this but we do. At Locations Mortgage Solutions, we’ve helped self-employed theatre professionals secure the mortgages they deserve for over 30 years.
