    HI Loulou

    Speak to your lender and ask them for some assistance
    Maybe change to int only if repayment
    They have to consider your circumstances

    Good Luck
  • Got interest only to do up house and sell-on with it now from savings! with no income now just cant make payments! House worth 70k more than what I paid! Need advise quickly! C&G only want to work out another payment plan-which I have no funds for! Living off savings totally so am trying to finish it to sell and leave the country!Thanks.

    Why don't you just sell it unfinished now for, say, 50k more than you paid? Probably make you more than finishing it and paying the mortgage for however long then having to sell in a hurry.
    Hurrah, now I have more thankings than postings, cheers everyone!
