hi guys
i am looking to buy my friends property and have a greed a price of 125000.however my friend(the seller) has agreed to give me the 10% deposit needed to put down and i will add it to the price of the mortgage.
so after number crunching the mortgage i will ask the bank for is 137,500 with me putting a deposit of 13,750 (which i will be given by the seller).
Just wondering what you guys think about this and whether the banks will accept this?any advice appreciated
