    What does your mother want to do? Too much me, myself and I in your OP.


    You basically want your cake and eat it, using your mother's RTB discount and it being in your name only, I sincerely hope not

    Get a mortgage broker and they will sort it out. I know someone who bought their council property on a joint application, but mortagee was only one of them. Some banks are quite picky on certain applications, therefore go through the broker
