Help [Remortgaging]

Hey guyz,

I am hoping you will be able to help/advise me.

I bought my home 7/8mnths ago for a very good price, without a mortgage [84k]. I earn approx 23.5k a year.

However, because my parents helped me to purchase the house i am now looking to get a mortgage in order to help me pay them back.

I have at least 10% equity in the house, which leaves me needing a 90% LTV mortgage.

Is there any hope?!

    Slightly off topic but do your parents want all the money in one hit? All I am thinking is you could give them say £500p/m or whatever you can afford/agree. This way you have the effect of having a mortgage but not the interest rate and your parents still get their money back. With interest rates so low they are not missing out on mega savings rates (unless ofc they need it for something).

    Just a thought.

    You can find deals, however the rates will not be the most competitive, based on going up to 90% LTV.

    But they enable you to do what you want.
