Help with 100% mortgage?

Hi everyone
We currently rent and as it is at the moment, are finding it impossible to save a deposit. The landlady is looking to sell this house in a couple of years and there is no way we can afford to save up a decent deposit by then.
We are looking at buying a house around £136,000.
We will need 100% mortgage and my hubby earns £33,000 a year and I earn £3,000 a year.
We owe £1500 on credit cards and have a car loan of £120 a month which will end in two years.
Can you tell me our chances of getting a mortgage at 100% and how much this would roughly be a month?
Thanks
Sarah

HI Sarah
Assuming you both have good credit history, then you should be ok with a 100% mortgage
Difficult to give an idea of how much it will cost, as it will depend on which lender/rates you will be eligible for, however below is a rough idea for you:
£136k over 25 years @ 5.89% = £ 867.13 pm repayment mortgage
= £667.53 pm interest only

I had about The £900 mark in my head.

Try and save at least a 5% deposit - it will increase the range of options available to you, and you should get better deals if you are prepared to put some of your own money down.poppy100

If you get a 5% deposit together you'll get a much better interest rate on your mortgage in some cases by as much as 1% which will save you alot in the long term.0

HI,
I am just about to take out a 100% mortgage with my girlfriend, on a house worth 132,500. We are using Standard Life for the Mortgage and the interest rate is about 6.23% fixed for 3 years. This works out at £811 a month, so going on those figures your probably looking at around £840-850 a month. (If not a bit less)
You seem to earn about the same as our combined incomes so I don't think you would have a problem getting a mortgage for that amount. I have spent ages looking for the best 100% mortage and Standard Life looks pretty good.
Cheers
