Mortgage and seperation
Posted on 12 October 2008
HI
I am looking to raise my own mortgage and buy out my exs share of the property. We both own the property.
If I get a mortgage offer as the buyer can I make him a lesser offer than the 50% of the value of the property once I have had my mortgage valuation.
Hi Lesley
In all honesty this isn’t something I can answer, as to where you and your ex stand with what you can and can’t offer will be down to you.
If you do need further advice I can only recommend is you seek legal advice.
I wish you all the very best.
