Part Ex On New Build The Numbers

Hello,
How does it work, using the numbers below am I right
New Build Price 180K
They buy Mine 110K

My outstanding mortgage is 85K.
Am I right in thinking in theory only need new mortgage for 70K. Is it same theory as part ex against car.

Cheers
mark

  • you get 110 - 85 = 25k

    you buy new house for 180 ..... probably need 25% deposit .... £45k ..... new mortgage is therefore 135k

    Hope you have 20k spare
    i buy houses ........... any condition.

    Bernuda john beat me to it!
    The way I see it is you would need a mortgage as follows:
    Sale of property110k
    less mortgage 85k]
    Money left 25k


    Purchase new property 180k
    deposit 25k
    balance rquired by mortgage 155k


    Please bear in mind stamp duty on a 180k property is £1800. I would negotiate the price down to 175k(currently exempt) ie 175k for new build 105k for your house will save you £1800 but cost the builder nothing.

    Also check with your lending company that they will lend the 155k as most lenders at the moment are only giving LTV of 75% against new builds and not providing mortgages against new build flats.if you require 25% you will need to increase your deposit

    so apart from a guaranteed buyer what is the point.
    Surely you only pay/require mortgage for the difference
