Unfortunately not.
Cross-charge facilities largely died out in the 1990s so you couldn't use property one as security for property two without actually mortgaging it (as a let to buy) and using the raised funds as a deposit.
As you intend to sell this property, that wouldn't be an option.
A bridging loan would be a solution - an expensive one, but a solution.I am a mortgage broker.

Thank you for your speedy reply.
I think I need to calm down slow down and let go of the house I want and just do things the ordinary way.
But thanks again0
