    I would be interested to know if that is true Dird, however I think I'd still like to be named on the mortgage/deeds either way as we're both paying towards the mortgage. It's just the principle of it really! :-)

    I'm sure there'd be plenty of conveyancers/solicitors willing to take a slice of your savings for a principle. :D

    So you think it makes sense to just wait until we're married? will that give me the same rights as actually being on the mortgage/deeds?

    Unless you are named on the deeds. You've no control over what happens to the property as no consent would be required. Cheaper to resolve the issue now. Than at a later date if matters were to turn pear shaped.
