Buying new home without selling old one

We recently went into Nationwide our current mortgage provider and they said that based on our joint incomes we could borrow £206,000 when we moved house with a 95% mortgage.
We owe £92,000 on our current property with little, if no equity in it and we only have £8000 saved up.
We are interested in a property on the market for a fixed price of £115,000. What are our chances of getting a new mortgage of £109,000 without selling our existing property.

Nationwide wouldn't go that high LTV on a second property.
It is a case of finding the lender who offers the LTV then ringing to see if they would consider a second property at that level. Alternatively get a broker to look for you.
Wouldn't be too optimistic though.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

So what you are saying is that you have a very good income but have little equity in your current home and only a small amount of savings!
Now you want a lender to lend you over twice your current debt with a tiny 5% deposit
Why not overpay your current mortgage by say £1500/2000 a month for the next year or two.0 -
As GMS said, Nationwide maximum LTV for a second property is 85%.I am a mortgage broker.
