Hi, I currently own a property which is rented out. (This is in my name only). Me and my husband are looking into buying a property together. Would we be classed as 1st time buyers ?

I wouldn't call you a first time buyer,
but then what do i know.
I think 'cos you already own a property you'd be classed as a second time buyer.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

I think the fact that you are even asking the question probably means you aren't, don't you?0

What percentage deposit do you have for the new property?
Is the rented property on a Buy to Let mortgage or Consent to Let?
