Don't be so facetious.
If you can say "Sorry to hear about your nan", you fully understand this post. Ok maybe a typo error, but nothing anyone making an educated guess couldn't understand.
You are clearly a person who gets some sort of kick from putting other people down. Yours energy would be better chanelled into building on your own self esteem, rather than making yourself feel good at the cost of others.

I just wondered with a name like clever-girl how she could spell it wrong twice not once.

As for you feisty1 - I have looked back across a number of your posts and I think you should be the last person advising people on their posts or analysing their personalities. You regularly put people down and question their cleverness - just take a look back over your comments. Perhaps while you are there all the people that thanked you can do the same.

My comment was not meant in a horrible way and if the OP took it the wrong way then I apologise - to you feisty1 I am not sorry at all!

Stop it you lot and get back to the original question.

In answer to your original question, you could mortgage your nan's house for say £25,000, and use that as a deposit for the flat you are buying. But to be honest, you are better off just selling it and using the proceeds to buy your flat outright, rather than having to faff about with two mortgages.

Sorry to hear about your nan.

I appreciate it is early days as yet. Has probate been granted on the estate? (assuming your nan died in England/Wales - if not, local equivalent). Just a thought that even if you have the keys to the house you may not officially own it until the grant of probate is obtained and executor signs house over to you, therefore not sure if you are allowed to rent it out until that point.

With the market the way it is, it may well take some time to sell. Even when it does, it may take a looong while to complete - there's one in our road that's been Sale Agreed for 9 months.

Why not stick it on the market now and let your friend house-sit until it sells (or until you're ready to let it). Unless you price very low, that's unlikely to be soon, so it'll be your Gran's house for a while.
