Mortgage for family shared ownership

My wife and sister-in-law (SIS) own equal shares in the lease of their late father's flat. My daughter, husband and child live in the flat. SIS wants to sell her half share and daughter wants to buy. Daughter's bank has declined a mortgage. Are there mortgage products available suited to this scenario?

    If you mean the declined scenario, it dependents why she was declined.

    Maybe income not enough.. Not enough info from OP.

    Was the application made with your wife included on the mortgage too?
