remortgage hopefully

Options
Hi there in December 2010 my daughter borrowed £10k from me to by her new flat, my question is how long does she have to be in her flat before she can remortgage ? as she needs to pay me back the money she owes me. ore is there any better opptions she can take regarding borrowing £10k from a lender ? hope it makes ome sence, Dickie.

    She needs enough equity in the property to remortgage and give you back what she owes you.

    ie if she bought for 100k with a 10k deposit borrowed from you, she'll have to wait until the value is at least 110k so there's enough equity for her to borrow upto 90% again.

    Then £100k purchase, £10k deposit = £90k mortgage (90%)

    Now £111k value, £10k to repay to you = £100k mortgage (90%)

    The loan to value determines when she can do this and that's based on the value and the outstanding mortgage. The longer she leaves it, the lower the existing mortgage, so the lower the value needed.

    thankyou verry much for your wisdom and time replying, all i can do is tell her what you have said regarding your figures and with abit of luck i should be able to recoup my money back,
    fingers crossed of course, regards Dickie
  • If she does remortgage there are many lenders that limit you to 80% of the value if you are changing lenders and raising money at the same time.
