20 years old and in full time education...

Hi
I'm a 20 years old in my first year of university full time education with no source of income. I've been looking around on how to secure a mortgage as a young buyer or as a 20 years old but I can't seem to find anything. most lenders require guarantor to own a property (in England) and my parents are the only people that will be willing to do that and they don't own a property in England. so I'm wondering if anyone out there have any advise on how I can secure a 100% mortgage on buy-to-let considering my circumstances I'd really appreciate it.

  • Your problem isn't that you are a young person. Your problem is that you have
    a) No deposit
    b) No income

    on the circumstances you describe YOU CANNOT GET A MORTGAGE. Stop wasting your time.

    100% mortgages are not available today. Nor mortgages for those without income.

    You've had genuine advice, your chance of getting a mortgage in your position is zero.

    At the very best you need a deposit to get a buy-to-let mortgage to convince a bank that you can rent rooms to fellow students - this is still a long shot.

    Al the best.
