    I was living in my Mum's house at the time she remortgaged and I had to sign to say that I would leave if requested to do so by the mortgage company (I was 19 at the time). I can't imagine that you would need to ask people who didn't live there? Mum remortgaged last year and I'm pretty sure that at 32, married and with a (mortgaged) house and kids of my own I wasn't asked to consent!

    I was also advised that I should take independent legal advice. Mum said that I could if I wanted, but there was also the option of moving out... I signed the form!
    It does, of course, apply to "adult" children living in the property to be mortgaged.

    I've amended my post. ;)

  • It applies to any adult living in the household - not just your adult children. We had a live-in nanny and she had to sign the waiver.
  • When I used to be a lodger I had to sign a waiver as well . . .
