    I think you may be able to find a handful of lenders that could look at this amount for you - a few on very good rates

    Have you had a close look at your budget to make sure that amount of borrowing will be affordable to you?

    hi herbiesjp

    i have found some prices for that amount of mortgage and i would be paying roughly the same as i am paying out now with all my mortgage and endowments etc.
    its just finding a lender that will say yes to that amount.
    the most i have got to at the moment is £208000,just need £12000 more.
    would be grateful for any help.

    thanks
