Loan to cover deposit and fees for new property

Best bet is to.....
Save up your deposit
Save up all other associated costs
Then buy a house0 -
I earn enough to pay off a additional loan to cover the loan for the deposit.
That's not the point, mortgage offers are made on a formula based loosely on LTV and income vs outgoings.
By taking out a loan you are artificially lowering the LTV (since you really needed to borrow more from the mortgage than you did) and also increasing your outgoings.
I'm guessing the problem is not so much the affordability more that you can't get a loan at 95% LTV but could get one at 90% so need the extra 5% (the figures are irrelevant they are just to illustrate)The proof that some people really are opinionated and ignorant
